Mr. CG and I cannot get enough curry. Any ethnicity, anytime. This week spring is really in the air here in Cowtown so I was feeling like a nice, light noodle bowl for dinner tonight. I dug out one of my favorite cookbooks and got to work. Referencing Meet the Coup Cooks Vegetarian Recipe cookbook, [...]
…I have seen some incredible churches and temples around the world. I am fascinated by the history and architecture of these incredible buildings…see for yourself. I’d like to give a shout out to Mr. CG for taking some of these images. We have been traveling together for many years so it is hard to say who [...]
This post is inspired by Avi, who recently made a comment on a photo of a sunset in one of my blog posts which got me thinking…I have seen a lot of amazing sunsets around the world and I should share more of them with you. Apologies if any of these photos are in previous [...]
Itching to try another of the curry pastes we brought back from our recent adventures in Thailand, I got to work today re-creating one of our favorite curries – the ever-so-yummy green variety. You can buy really good curry paste at any Asian supermarket, or make it yourself. I was lucky enough to have the [...]

I love to cook. I love photography. Food blogging = no brainer. This is my first kick at the can so go easy on me! As I am obsessed with all things Thai right now, I decided to do a Thai massaman curry for my first food blog. I ate quite a bit of this [...]
My hubby and I love to scuba dive, so when we booked our holiday in Thailand it was a no-brainer for us to visit an island where diving is readily available. Located on Koh Libong, Jolly Roger Dive Shop is owned and operated by Mervyn, who is of Singaporean decent. Mervyn has lived all over the [...]
The epic tale of our Thai adventure continues…. We hiked a beautiful waterfall on Koh Phangan called Phaeng which is located in the national park. It was an incredibly rejuvenating and and peaceful experience, despite the plethora of other tourists beating down the same path (it is high season in Thailand right now). Nonetheless, it [...]
Ok! Awake and refreshed from a fantastic sleep last night and ready to continue telling you about my epic adventures in Thailand. Picking up where I left off….
