Soph Posted November 21, 2005 Author Share Posted November 21, 2005 Well - im still alive with 500 baht in my pocket, so its not been too bad at all!!! Needless to say, the Mama is still sat uneaten at home (I actually really dont like the stuff) Have been eating very healthy Khao Gaerng every day for 20 baht and all the free veggies you get - and I feel good. Lucky for me we have empoyed 5 new chef's this month so there have been lots and lots of food tasting sessions at work. I am a survivor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
