Once upon a Storm

Little Miss & her friend Mahi was drawing by the window that afternoon when suddenly we hear loud whirling winds and thunder coming closer.

"Girls, look outside, it's going to rain soon !!!"

Storm in the Making



Our suite in the hotel was on the 16th floor and we had the best view of Chao Phraya river, the dark clouds passing by on high speed followed by heavy rain, such a drama !!!

Khanom

Dessert

Whenever I see these sweet Thai cake in the food bazaar here in Bangkok I can't help myself but to get couple of packages to enjoy them later at home.

Got no idea what's the exact name of these yummy treats but
I found out from our guidebook that Thai sweet cake like these ones were called Khanom in general and they are available almost in any market / food bazaar, just have to find them :o)

The main ingredient is cassava flour, the two on the left are covered with steamed mung beans & filled with fresh coconut and the round colorful ones on the right are filled with coconut sweetened in palm sugar, the center is crispy and caramel like, so good !

Come over for tea, anyone ?
