A Full Weekend

Something that is a pretty regular feature here is the market.  We go frequently to visit with people and don't forget the shopping.  Saturday 9/15 we went to the market with Nuah to check out some places.
 Matt saw an interesting poster at the markets:
Don't know if you can see what it says, but it is a chart of foods that you shouldn't eat together.  They are rated according to the side effects.  Vomiting. Dead. Etc. The people here take them quite seriously.  In fact there used to be one in the kitchen.  Good things to know. ;)  Mentos and Coke isn't on there though.  I find that strange.

Our taxi had seen better days, although that is true for many taxi's here.  This taxi was quite unique with the driver's unusual seating arrangements.

On the way to the supermarket we passed the place that Matt and the guys get the electrical whatsits from:

So many have been hospitable to us here and after we had been here awhile, er 3 months, we finally tried to get it together and return some hospitality.   At first you are just so tired that it is just hard to organize anything.  Plus people invite you over all the time so there isn't time to plan.  Then after you settle down a bit you realize, hey, if I want to hang out with people, I'm going to have to step up!  So I splashed out with a new recipe, Thai Green Curry. It was pretty good!
My first one, so I had to take a picture!
Sunday I had arrangements to go with KitKit shopping.  We walked up to a shop and on the way saw a momma dog with her new pups:
Later we went to Hledan Market to drop off some material for dresses. It was my first time into the depths of this market.  Its very interesting to look around.
Mission accomplished, we returned home for another week!
