SAND put on corner of football field to cover the grass. I guess it costs less than mowing. For many building sites this is the way all the sand is carried to the cement mixer.
RIDING FAMILY-STYLE
A typical scene here in Dhaka.
REFRESHING DRINKS for my grandsons. I just returned from a local store with a bag of Diet Pepsi and water. Ricky, the awesome Remian Raider’s goalie wonders if he could have a drink. I was more than glad to share with him. My grandsons and I spent almost five at this football tournament in Banani. They had a great time.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SANTOSHI KHAREL, my Nepali daughter!!! Hope you had a very special day. We got to know Santoshi, who worked in the office that arranged our six-day trekking experience in the Annapurna Range.
CHICKEN ON THE HOOF so to speak! If you want a great chicken curry here is one way to purchase it. I usually go to the market and tell them how many I want. They weigh them live charge me 110 taka/kg (72 cents/lb). Typically each chicken weighs 1.5 kg (3.3 lbs). Then they put it into a mechanical plucker, take out the innards, put everything in a bag (except the guts and feathers!) and I take it home. The one day the electricity was off so they skinned them instead of plucking the feathers.
