In the last two posts, you heard from my mates, but I am Barbara's water bottle now and it is my right to tell our story, so please ignore those other guys.
Today we went to the birthday party for a 4 your old. In Vietnam, sparklers and candles are sold along with the cakes. The sparklers are great fun for the adults, but the 4 year old was quite afraid of them. Barbara always enjoys the opportunity to eat cake because Vietnam boasts one of the best cake recipes around. The frosting is so light that it is like eating a cloud. According to Barbara, Vietnam has 3 really great foods: cake, pork chops and smoothies. This is what Barbara will miss when she leaves Vietnam. She thinks that these foods rate up there with crepes in France, waffle cookies in Belgium, racellette of Switzerland, and yellow mole empanadas of Mexico. I fear I will never experience the aforementioned taste sensations, but one can dream.....
