I would say it’s tastier with mango



Wow....was my gustatory imagination ever off base!  From the photo my mind and tastebuds instantly assumed cooked, flaked coconut in a self-generated coconut cream sauce.  LOL :-)   After Googling 'coconut rice', it's clear that this is white rice cooked in coconut milk, correct....(?).  Looks really delectible and I can see where adding the mango would make it pretty awesome.  Thanks!......may add it as dessert to curry night....

It is delectable indeed! I like it because it’s only slightly sweet and the mango adds a pop of extra sweetness and brightness against the creaminess of the rice. And yes, it is steamed first then cooked with the coconut milk. A favorite dessert of mine and arguably better cold the next day :)

A cold gray day at the lab, yet it brings a welcome tranquility (except for the fact that I got one of our trucks stuck in the mud here 🙃)

Jeff and grey mounting the new cat house inside the library. It’ll have a hole open to the outside so the cats can have both a safe and warm place to rest :) There will also be a window so that we can see them

And my sweet friend. ✨💘🌻 we watched a documentary called Kedi about the cats that live on the streets of Istanbul and it was so heartwarming. It reminded me of how precious it is to walk along this path with my Juniper

The snow is receding and it seems to have brought some birds back to the area. They covered the ground I assume looking for newly exposed food

Magdelene, you've hit the nail on the head! Always, listen to you body. It took me Waay too long to figure that out. We are not Super humans. We require regular rest AND, relaxation
