BREAKFAST AT A LOCAL hotel (restaurant)
This is my Boyd and Wurthmann (for the Ohio folks). At least 2 days a week I come and get a take-out order of 5 servings of dal (spicy beans) 5 servings of bhaji (spicy vegetables and potatoes) and 10 pieces of nan ruti (flat bread). Sometimes for my breakfast I just stop in and order some to eat there. It’s kind of like my Ohio “Boyd and Wurthmann!”
CHAPATIS in the making. This fellow in the Mohammadia Housing section of Dhaka came to the tea stand I was at and wanted me to take a photo of him and his wife as she was making chapatis (flat bread). Very tasty, in fact I had some for lunch at a friends house.

MUTTON CURRY, a very tasty Bengali dish was prepared by my friend’s (fellow footballer) Mother for all the football players to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. We ate this along with porotas and a special cake. Halim’s Mother is a wonderful cook. I’ve had two meals in their home, and he just called last night and wants me to come sometime and bring my wife.

CORNBREAD – Nepali style!
This morning I went to a local hotel (restaurant) and had a great breakfast of bhaji (spicy veg) and nan-ruti (one kind of Bengali bread) for 20 tk (30 cents U.S.D). I decided to show you the cornbread as they fix it in Nepal. This piece of bread, made with corn meal, is hollow. and is quite tasty.
DRINKING TEA
I decided to interrupt the Nepal photos with this photo my friend took of me sipping Bengali tea during a photo shoot in Old Dhaka. A bus driver who ran the route from Holmes Co., Ohio to Sarasota, Fl. was discussing me with my Mom in Florida. He said it is the fellow who looks out over the top of his glasses. I guess he was right! I’d like to thank my friend Matthias, who dropped this photo onto my desktop while I was in Nepal.
BANANA LASSI
Here I am enjoying a banana lassi.
FRESHLY SQUEEZED Orange/Pineapple Juice. Here is this street vendor in Thamel, Kathmandu, Nepal filling a glass with juice.
WATERMELON
The Bengalis are one of the people groups who do such a great job of arranging their foods in an attractive way. In Old Dhaka I spied this watermelon cut and ready for hot, hungry pedestrians passing by, to indulge in.
PIAJU a tasty treat I saw being prepared in Old Dhaka. It is made with onions and lentils (dal). I’m having fits because I can’t see what I am typing until it is uploaded!
