Re: Things available in Cambodia and not elsewhere.
Thanks, I find those hair-bands really work well for tying up Pangolins.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

Hair bands that fit missus’ head.
Be careful ,they only work for the Cambodian pangolins, because those vicious-looking spikes can be deadly for the other sorts of pangolins.John Bingham wrote: ↑Sun Mar 14, 2021 11:59 pm Thanks, I find those hair-bands really work well for tying up Pangolins.
Could be useful for trapping baby elephants.

Missus is getting darker by staying at home.
Keeping her skin moisturized with a honeydew facial wrap. Slices of honeydew melon wrapped around her face.

Re: Things available in Cambodia and not elsewhere.
Her first attempt at making burgers.
With coleslaw and dressing as side dish, as well as cucumbers. And cucumbers picked with salt and sugar.
Her first time at burger assembly.
Stick a chopstick in it and it’s done. The chopstick to keep it from falling apart.
Showing her how to assemble a proper cheeseburger. Slice of Pepper Jack at the bottom.
Yellow Mustard, Ketchup, on the top bun.
After going through the history of the burger and how it swept through America, and how wonderful tasting is this quintessential American food, missus tells me she has had burgers before ... in Cambodia

Re: Things available in Cambodia and not elsewhere.
Missus found the yellow powder to make Banh Cheav. As per cooking tradition, powder spread is everywhere during the process. Clothes, couch, floor, etc.
Finished product is a darker yellow color. Probably because the powder is from Vietnam.
Still a delicious lunch.
Stay safe out there!

Re: Things available in Cambodia and not elsewhere.
Happy Cambodian New Year.
Went to the temple for blessing.
Missus brought food offerings for the monks as well as flowers.
Holy candle wax fell on her. She got super blessing per monk.
In attendance were 3 monks, 1 partially blind, 1 playing on his phone while chanting, and maybe a dozen attendees at most. Me and missus were the youngest. Everyone else was retirement age or older.
But boy, can they cook.
Please be safe out there everyone.
And here’s prayers to Buddha that the coming here will be better.

Re: Things available in Cambodia and not elsewhere.
Great job there NKOTB hijacking this topic . Suggest you get back on topic..
Or else, start your own topic along the lines of:
'Me and the missus living in Texas'

Re: Things available in Cambodia and not elsewhere.
Other members have requested that I keep updates on this thread (post #19).
Unless YOU believe you are more important than other members of CEO.
Anyways, new formal, tailor made blouse (that goes with the Sampot, and fits missus precisely) only available in Cambodia.
The red candle wax pretty much ruined it.
