Mmm Mmm Good

Yesterday we attended Thai Cooking School. There were 8 of us in a beautiful outdoor setting on a lagoon. We made Pad Thai, 2 soups, 4 curry dishes and for dessert sticky rice with mango. The best news is that we got to eat all of our creations. We learned so much about how the Thai use each and every part of fruits, vegetables, etc. We made each curry paste by pounding it to death, for a very long time. The Thai's say they can tell how lazy a person is by how they pound the paste. The ingredients we used were very fresh and our teacher was excellent at explaining each step. We look forward to recreating the dishes when we get home.

Melissa,
I see that your hair gel must have been in the lost luggage. Now that it has arrived you can "punk up" your hairdo again.
