Jennie you should try the Mariage Freres Tea company sometime, they have excellent products. The varietal called "Eros" is my favorite.

My favorite soup is clam chowder, overall. I do enjoy soups, in general, though.
Anyhow, today I made ceviche, and am impatiently waiting for it to be done, so that I can enjoy it. My recipe for that, I got from school, and is designed to be used as a chip dip, instead of as an entree.

I love Ceviche. Often I will serve it as an appetizer course.

This may be the year of tea for me. I think I should try everyone's favorites. I am so fond of tea time. The ritual of it, sitting down with a tray and a tea pot, pouring it into my cup, adding sugar or honey or milk, the sound of the metal against the ceramic of the antique cup. I used to sit for tea quite often. I think it is time to resurrect this tradition in my life.

... this means I need a new tea pot...

When it is cold out I look for Chowder. All kinds. I like to come up with new variations on Chowders. I do a Chicken Corn Chowder with potato, red bell pepper and bacon that is always a big hit. Easily modified for vegetarians and vegans. You can puree some cooked potato as a thickening agent and skip the use of cream, butter or half and half.

What are some of the staple proteins of Malaysian cuisine?

[COLOR="rgb(153, 50, 204)"]Protein? These days I'd say chicken, always fish, and coconut milk. When my ex's mum was young, chicken was a bit of a luxury.[/COLOR]

In South Korea, seaweed soup is the staple for mothers who have just given birth, as well as traditional for birthdays I like it a lot.

[COLOR="rgb(153, 50, 204)"]I think I'm excited about all these soup suggestions because it doesn't involve an oven and therefore a lot easier for me. If you lovely lovelies ever remember, I'd love it if you included alternatives to things like avocado. Things like avocado, apples, oranges, berries are imported. Strawberries are grown in the 'highlands' in a cooler, more temperate climate. I'm so hungry right now![/COLOR]

I think it's a safe bet to place on you having Nutcracker tea.
