TOMATO PASTE CANNING TIME

MY DECIDED WHILE THE TOMATOES WERE IN SEASON to make some paste for use with pizza or spaghetti!

Many French Pizzas coming up in the next year!

A PILE OF WATERMELONS WITH THE SELLER PERCHED ON TOP OF THEM IN MIRPUR 1, DHAKA, BANGLADESH.

We sure have been enjoying the taste of this fruit.  A small one will likely cost 1.40 USD.

TASTY WATERMELONS!

This is the complimentary breakfast served at Hotel Amir in Mymensingh.  Boiled egg, toast, banana, and tea was served.

2012 Day 81

CAROL AND IDA REALLY DID EAT WITH THEIR HANDS.  THIS IS THE NORMAL METHOD FOR BENGALIS WITH BANGLA FOOD.  This was the noon meal at the Taize brothers after the worship service.  The one brother was teasing the ladies that there was an examination.  If they failed to show they could eat decently with their hands he was going to produce spoons for them to use.  They were glad they had one day to practice before this! They must have passed the test since no spoons were produced.  It was quite a bit easier since it was kitcheri!

Eating kitcheri with their hands!

Putting the motorcycle to use as a freight hauler!

2012 Day 57

AN ASSORTMENT OF PEANUTS, AND OTHER SNACK FOODS AVAILABLE ALONG THE STREET.

Many treats available at this stand beside the street. (Actually taking up sidewalk space!)

2012 Day 39

STEAMED TREATS SEEN ON THE STREETS OF PHNOM PENH IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS.  I never had a chance to try them out.  With breakfast buffets included in hotel fees I never quite justified the extra food.

Steamed treats filled with either veggies or meat for a morning snack!

2012 Day 33

MY SON, AUSTIN TOLD ME I HAVE TO EAT SOME NASI LEMAK.  So last weekend Dustin and I went to the Singapore Kitchen and I ordered some.  On the menu it said it was coconut rice!  With it came it looked like this!

2012 Day 29

EVENING MEAL AT THE FCC (Foreign Correspondents Club) restaurant in Phnom Penh.  The Phnom Visitors Guide said, “This is the famous FCC – still as much a journalist’s meeting place as a popular tourist/expat bar and restaurant.  Located on the second floor of a beautiful old colonial-era building, the FCC’s open balcony provides a spectacular, sweeping view of the riverfront.  …….. No visit to Phnom Penh is complete without at least one visit to the FCC.”   So of course last evening I decided to check it out!   🙂   I decided on the  grilled Norwegian Salmon Fillet.  It was as delicious as the Salmon I ate in Chicago, San Diego, and the one my brother-in-law caught and brought to Florida to be grilled!    I finished off the evening by sitting down with a mango milkshake, while I wrote some postcards to send to friends.
