The chip board was varnished at least.

Yes, I saw all that milk too. They were well prepared for Hmong New Year anticipating to be making lots of froofy drinks.

Impressive use of chip board. Wonder what it will look like in a couple of years. Maybe they have plans to cover it with something else. Appears to be well stocked with milk as well.

Yes, a new species of stink bug - Euro Cake stink bug. And leave it at that.

You know, a Euro Cake would probably be high on her list of things to buy. They are pretty popular, especially the pandan flavored ones.

Thank you for 'liking' this photo. I was shocked that days went by and no one had. I mean, with those wires making such a beautiful addition to the stark photo how could it go unliked!

Jen, you're the best, noticing every detail in my photos. Thank you. I was worried about including this one because of the distortion. My new iPhone has a really wide angle setting and in some cases it distorts because it's so wide. But it is very useful when in tight spaces like elevators.

Love the placement of bright colors here, with Andrea's scarf in the center.

I haven't had any reason to use the phrase "in my mind's eye" in .. I don't know how long.

And here it is! An image that invites the participation of my mind's eye!

It's fun to imagine the 15 women livening up the scene with their colorful pa sinhs.

One of them might even go into the store to buy a pandan-filled Euro Cake to enjoy that unique flavor: grassy with hints of rose, almond, and vanilla, verging on coconut.

My favorite part is that it matches the Euro Cake wrapper *and* the refrigerator.

Well said, like a mother would.

I see kids using big sharp knives and scissors all the time over here. Parents are not concerned in the least. In general kids are unsupervised and somehow things seem to turn out quite well. Fingers intact.

Oh! That makes sense.

Drug money bracelet replaced by handcuffs. That's a bad day!

And definitely makes me think twice about getting involved in cross-border drug smuggling.

Bicycle touring sounds like a lot more fun!
