    We had fun tonight with some simple fare. Gỏi đu đủ tôm - green papaya & shrimp salad. Peeled and sliced unripe papaya is mixed with shredded carrots. A dressing of sugar, fish sauce, sugar, garlic, chopped mint, and red pepper. A delight served cold or room temperature for a warm sunny summer...

    Tipping

    Yes. This. I live in USA. Most long term service workers aren't exactly from beneficial financial, social status in the first place, and how this system even developed in the first place is mind boggling. With respect to our well liked poster Houchens Head who commented "if they don't get paid...

    Match Thread Coventry City-SWFC Match Thread- Saturday 5th October

    I figured I'd wait a day for my 2p. And, didn't read any match commentary until last night. Nearly 40 pgs worth of entertaining optimism turned hysteria. Sort of funny reading. Many of you need to chillax and stop biting each other's heads off as it's like watching best friends have a row. I...

    Throw-ins

    Dunno why the "long throw" has to take a player out of position to the other side of the field to take if the ball is wet or slippery and it doesn't really go far.

    Canh chua- a sour fish soup. Tamarind is the major player for the sour broth, combined with pineapple, spongy elephant ear stalk (taro), and tomato. Catfish is the ordinary fresh fish of choice, though any fresh fish would do. Fish steak rather than chopped nuggets or filet gives it a powerful...

    Cổ gà - Chicken necks; simmered in fish sauce (of course) but this time with some red wine 🍷 for added bouquet, and an onion mushroom mix as well. She didn't think I'd really enjoy the necks so we added a breast as well. The necks don't taste bad, I just was a bit frustrated from the very thin...

    Problems and Solutions

    More serious thought: I realize sport is high octane and very high pressure results oriented (meaning a lot of slapshot, panicked decision making), so this suggestion might seem bonkers. There looks to be a lot cogs in the gears behind-the-scenes. I really think despite all the background noise...
