LOL During my time in the Philippines, I loved Durian candy. Haven't found it outside the country, though. When you walk into a grocery store...
Not that I am aware of. That would be nice, though, for sure. I am thinking of asking her to try some Mango. I don't think they are in season at...
Funny you mentioned that. She was talking with me just last night, regarding various ingredients she could add to the batter, so I won't grow...
I liked your unedited version better than the one linked to, now.
It was probably one of my compatriots from Secret Squirrel Land. You are on the Secret Squirrel Watch List. [ATTACH]
Chan finally caught the lady home yesterday, to return the iron. But, she took time to ask if she was interested in selling it. The lady was...
When I was coming up, 8 ply tires were considered heavy duty. But, 16 ply?!
@Hanzo, do you have your own garden, livestock, etc.?
I imagine that is why charcoal is sold here by volume, rather than by weight. The bags, sometimes, vary quite a bit in weight. So, I am pretty...
Me too! I'd never met a Filipino or Filipina who grew up IN the Philippines, but didn't know any of the local OR national language.
I figure that, as well. While wood, both raw and lumber, are still fairly common in both countries (for now, anyway - too much illegal logging in...
One of the oddest things I've ever learned since living abroad. I once had a Cebuano graphic designer who worked for me, while living in the...
I can't help wondering why they don't use coconut husks to make charcoal here, like they do in say, the Philippines? No one has ever been able to...

A week or two back, I added a resource on Making Charcoal. Now, I have never made my own charcoal, due to having resided in Southeast Asia for so...
My mom had to treat me similarly. But, I still went through a gallon of milk every day or so, growing up. Like my dear ol' departed pappy used...
Thanks. That's a big boy, for sure. I bet he eats more than I do, over the course of a day!
The ones here look a bit different, but not by too much. [ATTACH] Sorry for the not-so-good image. I took it around midnight, tonight. Much...
My apologies. We do get the real stuff here. The problem is, the stocks aren't regularly maintained here. So, when we do find it on the shelf, we...
Slim pickings on syrup, here. But, when we find it at the local import stores, we buy as much as possible, at once. I want to stop using syrup,...
How much does he weigh, currently?
I never knew they could be so good. Although some Third-World countries have "big-box" stores, Cambodia is a bit sparse in that area. (There are...

In some parts of the world, they are called Upesi Stoves. I'm not sure of the Khmer name for this particular stove, here in Cambodia. But, they...
Our dogs must be related. Such rough lives they have. A photo of Pring (sleeping) that I posted in another thread, a day or two ago: [ATTACH] She...
