Daily Greetings

Good Saturday morning from Thailand. Well, almost good. Power is out. Heavy rain last night but the power didn't go out till we were up.

Sunset a few nights ago at dinner.

Thanks Jujube!

Yes, Leotie, the food is amazing. If you eat where Thais will eat you get the real thing, not westernised. We eat Thai food at restaurants every night, but rotate between them. Very healthy, delicious, and can be as hot or mild as you like.
 
Good Morning everyone..1731fafbc8bdbcf84f0e944c1c441bfd.jpg


8.00am ...and it's solid ice out there this morning. Wish I was in Thailand with you AS..:D

Going to have my hair cut this afternoon, ready for going back to work on Monday after my 10 day annual leave.. it's gone so fast I can hardly believe it..:gettowork:

Have a good Day everybody!!
 
greetings from the Thumb (Michigan).... the weather outside is chilly, we are warm wood burning fires, silly.......... but I got to go away, busy day, busy day, busy day....
 
We have a Thai restaurant down the street run by Thai's. One of the ladies that works there lives in this building, and she makes some of the best spring rolls! She will make them for me once in a while and I will tell her not to cook them, I'll do that. I think I have about 60 in my freezer now. If these are westernized, I would probably die and go to heaven with the real thing!
 
GOOD MORNING EVERYBODY> It's 7:35 AM here in So. Calif and sunny but a little cool.

Just turned on the PC, poured myself a mug of java and here I am. Wishing everyone a fine day.

I had some good Thai food at a place near my sister in Michigan but I suspect MSG is still often used.

The menus here are massive, even at tiny restaurants. There are vegetables in them I've never seen before. I could have a different dish every night during the entire two months. But I still tend to go for the same 5 or 6.

I don't often get spring rolls as even here they are greasy. Love em though.
 
Good morning from a very wet Koh Samui. It POURED rain all night. Kept waking us up. Thankfully the power is still on for the A/C.
 
Now, you are making me hungry and it's 4:46 a.m. here. But I still have a bit of pineapple sherbet in the fridge. Believe it or not, I eat about a quart of that stuff a day and lose weight off it!
 
I found banana pudding ice cream in the grocery store, and got about 4 cartons. It was good to start with, but by the time I got to the 3rd carton, I gave the other one away. It was too much, now, I'm sticking with the sherbet.
 
Ameriscot, that is some HOT weather there. Here, it's about 40-45, and I have the AC running @60 degrees and if it would go any cooler than that, I'd probably have frostbite when I woke up tomorrow morning!

We do get a lot of sea breezes which helps a lot. And we swim in pool and sea (Gulf of Thailand). A/C in house and car and hubby likes to put the fan on the porch so he can sit on the porch and read.

Top temps in summer where we live in Scotland is normally low 70s f. But we've also lived on the equator but high elevation so temps were surprisingly pleasant.
 
Ameeriscot, I'm one of those strange folks that feel a lot better in cold weather. Arthritis doesn't bother me in cold weather, in fact, if it snows, I'm out in T shirt and shorts. If we get a decent hurricane, I like to go out and stand in the wind and rain. That feels so good to me. Winter time, I keep the AC going all the time.

I'm just the opposite. Hate snow. Don't like it too cold, but 50 or 60 is sometimes nice. We had the same temps in Uganda all year long - 65-85. Loved it but it got monotonous not having seasons.
 
Good morning everyone. Another beautiful day here in my neck of the woods. Just having some oatmeal of which I didn't add enough water. Rather dry. :rolleyes:
