Pizza in Thailand

Flower

Hi,

It was a special day today. We had lunch downtown, there was teaching at the house, and a birthday was celebrated.

Congrats to all of you who knew the song. Even if you weren't born yet, this song should be in your knowledge base. Hmm.

"Come here Mama And dig this crazy scene He's not too fancy But his mind is mighty clean. Ain't no drag __ __ __ __ __ __" Hint: This song could be the theme song for the new California ruling regarding shopping bags. That should give it away.

Today was Lisa's birthday and part of the fun of days like this is getting to do something different. We ate at the Pizza Company and had our cheeseless pizza. Yum. Might seem weird to some but it's actually kinda good with BBQ chicken as the topping. Nothing like pizza in Thailand to keep you thinking. (Ha)

Later in the day Napa had another ballet lesson. She's showing lots of potential. After her lesson she played on the steps of the pool. The water is cold but she insisted that it felt good. When you're nine and you want to swim it really doesn't matter how cold the water is.

Boot prepared a delicious fish dinner, complete with the head. (Ha) Then she brought out a beautiful cake for Lisa that she picked up at the market. I took pics of both and I'll post them soon. Tay and Napa were still at the house and they joined us for cake and laughter. Napa said she'd like to live at our house. That pool is such an attraction. After cake we learned that she played the piano so we all went into the studio and she played 'Happy Birthday' and a few other tunes. Then Tay's husband arrived with a big basket of fruit and some flowers.

While driving today it dawned on me that there seems to be a willingness here to take risks that baffles me. If one isn't afraid it's easier to take risks, I suppose. I'm still rolling this one around in my mind but I think you get the drift of it all. So, maybe it's not just bad driving. Maybe it's just the way it is. Another 'Hmm' moment.

One other thing that is puzzling is the unattended corn fields that surround the house. Workers started clearing another field today. I heard a chopping sound and looked out to see them cutting down a large section, without any harvesting. The field to the west of us is just standing there, dormant. I'm going to start asking around and see if I can get to the bottom of this.

Have an Exciting Thursday.

Peace,

Danny
