Granted, i wasn't home when they cooked the dog- but tonight gave a whole new meaning to the term "doggy bag". Indeed, my friends had saved some roasted meat in the fridge for us to try. So they served it up in ramen soup, and a few of us gathered around the communal bowl and dipped in. I hate to say this, but i prefer it to a great deal of the other things i have been served this week. I like a lot of classic thai food, but we are eating regional Isaan food up here, and i will by no means miss it. (The dog was like very tender beef, and had only a mild flavor variance, in case anyone was wondering.)
In a category less likely to disturb you, I found a small Tesco here - and since its a european chain they make decent baked goods, including excellent banana bread muffins. Said muffins have become a staple for me at just 30¢ for two...they fit exceptionally well in my purse; convenient for toting to the university campus where we regularly spend afternoons engaged with students and/or faculty.
