Last night, I told my wife about the conversation-blogs here and the different questions I posed on this site. She replied, "Honey, you're not Thai. You're a redneck with a Thai exterior."...LOLOL

Is she American? Yes - from the South; hence the term "redneck".

I do recall being raised on "sticky rice" and "ba-dack" or "ba-la"?? I just know it's fermented fish....I've since developed a "hankering" for hamburgers instead.

My mother is Thai and lives 30 miles from us. She makes "qui-tio" (Thai beef soup), Som Tum, and many other Thai dishes I love with a passion. Bty, Som Tum with rice is $7.00...moms is free! Ever notice all Thai moms have herbs, spices, and vegetables growing in their front yard, back yard, side yard, and even at their son's and daughters yards? LOL

Before I met my wife she loved Chinese food. Now, she doesn't think there's not enough spices in Chinese to her liking. Her favorite Thai dish is...uh...uh...all of them...

I earlier mentioned the floating markets intrique me. I've been told that tropical fruits are to die for in Thailand...i.e. Logans, custard apples, durain, lychees, Mangosteen, rambutan, rose apples.

Would someone please describe their taste, if not email them to me...
