ORIGINAL: Gwynvyd I wanna try Red's food too. maybe a Curry throw down Red? You know I am Hindu right.... and raised partialy in a chinese resturant, and over at my friends Rashmi and Manish's house learning from their mother how to cook. Deal! Very cool. I was always the "token white girl" at all the Sri Lankan Association of DC/greater Metro area functions. They were always "mushed" that I could sing their songs, dance their dances, speak a little of their language, and cook their food. (I taught my ex how to cook food from "back home"... having cooks, he never had to learn.) My mother-in-law taught me while I lived there and the friends we had all loved teaching me. The first time we had his aunt and uncle from SL over to our place for dinner, I made chicken curry, beef curry, daal, roti, mallung, kiri hodi, and pittu. The uncle ate and ate, then asked his wife why she didn't make this or that the way a "sudhi" (white girl) who was just starting out did. It started a low-key, not understood by me, "argument" between them, which made me secretly thrilled. Does that make me a horrible person? *hehehe* Oh you are sooo gonna have to cook for me! That is awesome. I bet his wife hated your guts after that! I love it when I surprise people I do not know. We have a market here in town we just found that sells indian foods and stuff. The little chickie behind the counter was all bitchy and uppity thinking I was there with Soft on some damn social experiment or something. I went around the store, got my food... and while in line she let some guy cut infornt of me while I stood there with my mouth dropped open. ~she had totally ignored me. Dizzy bitch. When I finally got my turn she noticed what I bought and started figuring out that I might not be as she thought. When I asked her about a spice she didnt have.. she didnt even know what the fuck I was talking about. *grumbles* I miss my old shop down in Fort Myers. They carried everything I needed.. and had great fresh desserts... the family that owns it is so sweet and our um plays with theirs. I also loved surprising my minster ( who is Hindu) with food. *big smile* He is doing our wedding.. and he will be in heaven with the menu. Gwyn, Who is soooo not catering her own wedding! My best friend Winfield is.
