Lovely Vegetable Display!

I was going to post the top 30 or so but didn’t have the internet capabilities to complete in time. These are two of my favorites.  If anyone has any comments on what they would like to see in my blog in 2013, including ways to improve my posts please comment.

Happy New Year!

OUR HOUSE-HELPER’S MOTHER HAS A ONE-ROOM DWELLING, WHICH SHE SHARES WITH HER SON, DAUGHTER-IN-LAW AND THEIR TWO DAUGHTERS.  Much of  their cooking and serving containers are stored under the bed.  This is in one of the many Bihari camps in Bangladesh.  The fresh lavender paint gives the room a nice look.

THIS IS A GREAT SPOT IF YOU LIKE PORTUGUESE PERI-PERI CHICKEN COOKED BY THIS SOUTH AFRICAN CHAIN RESTAURANT. IT IS MY FAVORITE RESTAURANT!  Here is the menu in the UK: http://www.nandos.co.uk/themenu), which doesn’t differ much from the one I love in Dhaka, Bangladesh.

WE WENT TO OUR HOUSEHELPER’S BIHARI CAMP FOR THIS CELEBRATION.  BIHARIS ARE KNOWN AS GOOD COOKS!

With the new uploading method I haven’t figured out how to post for later dates, so I will post enough photos for the rest of the year for my 366 days posts! Hope to spend some vacation in Nepal from Friday until after the New Year!

ROSANNA’S ARTISTIC ABILITIES REPRESENTED HERE!  The ISO was at 640 so the exposure was only 1/20th of a sec.  I should have upped the ISO to get a sharper photo.  So it goes!
