Dietary Intake.

So my dad asked me about the food I've been eating recently, but this isn't so much a daily occurance. I really enjoy trying new food...most of the time. There's some semi-questionable "meat-on-a-stick" at the market that I try to avoid. The most recent culinary adventure was this "gift" from another teacher, Richard Fish...a bamboo worm. Supposedly when they're fried, "they taste like french fries". I'm not going to call anyone a liar, but the only thing that reminded me of french fries was that it was a little bit salty. For the record, I made one of my students bite the head off before I ate it. For some reason, I felt better when it wasn't staring back at me :)

Other than worms, I've been eating amazing pad thai (yes, the pad thai we pay $15 in the states for, but is about 80 cents a plate here and tastes way better), awesome pumpkin dishes with rice, sweet and sour vegetables with rice, scrambled eggs with rice, fried rice, noodles with soup. I've been gagging on fish meat balls, fish flavored vegetables, and octopus (or was that squid?). They put egg in a lot of dishes, one in particular was this scrambled egg with what I thought was onion. I took a couple bites before someone told me that it was pig skin. Nice. I wonder if I would have ever noticed...haha :)

Jesus is cool quote of the day: Life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. Luke 12:23
