Sardines??

Yeech. :bleh:

K.T. Tran wrote:Yea....sardines isn't the greatest fish to eat....but it could taste good depending on how you cook it

Yes sardines! Yum!!!! :) You don't have to cook them. They taste good right out of their own little can/ tin. They were lightly smoked sardines in soybean oil. It is an aquired taste, I suppose. :)

Taro smoothies are good. What exactly are those dark colored beans/ pods in the Taro smoothie? At least they were in mine. :shocked: Thai tea with pearl??? Real pearl? Sounds interesting. I ate at a Thai restuarent the other night with some friends we had Pad Thai noodles and Green Curry chicken in coconut sauce. Very good!!!

Thanks K.T. Tran. No wonder they tasted so good. I looked up Bolba and found that they are also called Boba or Black Tapioca Pearls that are also used for Bubble Tea. I love the taste Tapioca pudding!!!! :inlove: I have loved it since I was a litle girl. :D

Here is what I found at the Wikipedia website of what Tapioca really is:

The green curry was a little bit spicier than the other dishes in a creamy greeish-white sauce but it was sooo good! :thumbsup: I hope your GodMother can make it for you KT.

ohh the green curry, tried that before, thesedays so into Japanese Curry/and other kinds of food. But Indian Curry isn't bad, and very spicy too.
Boba, yeah good stuff, was into it a lot 6 years ago. Occassionally i like to have boba, usually the regular Milk-tea one or Taro, either ice blended or regular just with ice. :bonk:

Indian curry comes in different degrees of spiciness. Not sure but I think Vindaloo (sp?) is one of the hottest. Check with z123_us on that one.

I recently started eating Honey Bunches of Oats also. GMTA! ( great minds think alike). They are pretty yummy. :good:

for a special lady, that would be understandable to cook a meal like that, but it had better be for a special occasion as well. that is a lot of cleaning too after all that cooking. like a thanksgiving meal, a cook-a-thon. :hehe:
