Left-overs piled on hot rice and mixed. |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bibimbap พีบิมบับ (pheebimbap) At home in Thailand we do something similar. At home, we make rice and top it with whatever we didn't finish from the last meal. I finally decided to use June 2022's entries for my responses to other bloggers' entries. I tend to do this daily anyways and post in my weekly 'catch-all' blog (added to every day} "Porthole" .
Each entry to be brought to the notice of Ẃeβ࿚ẂỉԎḈĥ and StephBee when they are running the Bard Blog Contest. For bitem:981150 sponsored by huser:webwitch and huser:sgcardin |
To Mouse says gobble gobble in "Invalid Entry" Prop yourself up at the bar, cafe or library. Add a sign: Advice: $0. Good Advice: I pay you! Or anything silly will do. "Gab with a Granny/Geezer" "Free advice. Not necessarily useful... but the price is right" "Free Hugs" "Prove me wrong!" "Cookies" "Lemonade/Water". Getting out is the key unless people are used to visiting (I do remember the past century when neighbors were a tad less paranoid). Isolation is deadly. Power... have a Plan B. Now would be a good time to make one. Where to go. Who to call. How to manage electricity. Back-up generator, rechargeable batteries, do I know my neighbors? I grew up in Snow Country. Neighbors were important. I'm having difficulty making connections in Thailand. This small city is very convenient and easy to live in but I don't know more than a few words of the local language (slowly...) and many ex-pats are unfriendly. To IceSkatingSugarCube (Jennifer) in "Swim Meets, Vacations, and Trees, Oh My!" "Is this the house with the 5 bedrooms, a quiver full of kids and a gazillion cars? I like willows. I'd cut the dead part and leave the living. As for swimming... I'm learning! I have to work on breathing because I get short-of-breath and then I panic. Water is warm and not deep so I'm making decent progress. Days can be a hot 90 with nights 75. Thailand can be steamy in rainy season. I love the rain! Sun burns. I wear a hat. Even when I sweat working out (yeah... I'm doing that too... surprise!) I wear long pants and sometimes a long sleeve shirt. The flies and skitters are pesky. Thankfully we have lots of birds. Covering up is essential here during the day." For QotD. A list of 5 from least to worst: 5. Having a gun (real or fake... never knew) put to my head. I was cool and collected. 4. Being forced to drive to the border (I stopped at the precinct instead). I was mindful and focused. 3. Waking up to someone in my room standing by my closet. I was screaming and hysterical. 2. Being caught in a riptide, Cahuita, 1974 whilst I was walking alone. I was terrified and panicked! 1. A couple events from my childhood I cannot remember. I still am frightened of heights/edges and despise birthday parties. Trauma is never what happens. It's how the body reacts. Being homeless triggered traumas and was traumatizing in itself. I have a whole list for that and other events. My high-anxiety and deep-depression stem from those. I'm actually doing much better these days. |
