Where did my weekend go?

As they say, "Time flies when you are having fun!"  And especially during the weekend.  We are already summer heat of 37 degrees... had to drink lots of water and lemonade to cool down.
On Saturday, helped clean the stake center and found a lot of discrepancies.  Things were not properly organized so we made do with whatever we could find.  Finished cleaning in one hour.  Jonas and Henry came and helped as well.
Sunday night, fixed glutinous rice with dried shrimp and pork.  What was missing was shitake mushrooms. (Will include foto in my next cooking attempt)
A wise advice is not to eat it before sleeping, it takes a long time to digest.  Glutinous rice is good for breakfast or lunch.  The rice harvesters in Thailand would pack glutinous rice in the mornings and stay at the rice paddies and not return home until sundown.  Or there is a vendor on his little motorbike selling glutinous rice steamed in bamboo.  So when you buy them at the paddy fields he will split them open and you can eat it with some packed condiments or fried fish, etc.  They spend the whole day at the paddy fields and no time to go home for lunch!
A word of thanks to my friends who have seen my blog.  Please leave a comment next time adios for now.
