Elephants Again! (and a poll)

Hey! Today was had some fun elephants visit our house :) These guys come around and ask for money or food for them and their elephant... We came out and fed the elephant a banana and Adam got to get on him and ride down the street for $1 :) It was fun :)

Adam loved it :) It made his day :)

OK, I added a poll to the left side of my blog... (our super cool friend tim gave us the idea)... so the other day I went to the glasses store and was trying to ask if they made perscription sunglasses... there's no Hindi for that (that we've been able to figure out) but there are specific English words you have to use in order to get the correct answer... when I asked if they had perscription sunglasses, he said no... we finally figured out the right thing to say and he said yes... check out the poll to see what you think was the right answer :) ROckon!!

Apparently K has already voted, but I would choose "mirrors with degrees." It sounds stupid enough, yet semi-logical enough, to be the right thing in India.

Comic Con 2013

Comic Con 2013 just ended. It was a fun one this year. This was the 3rd Annual Comic Con here. We've been to it all 3 years. It's getting bigger each year! I think they grew out of their venue this year...it was soooo crowded! Here's me imitating "Superkudi" :) Aashini and me :) For the Love of Comics... Some guys that were dressed up... the guy on the left isn't in his full attire... He won the CosPlay contest that day... he won a trip to Dubai to their Comic Con!! This was my favorite costume of the day... Nyan Cat :) There were lots of people there! Me and the girls on the 2nd day :) I had to have at least one jumping picture :) Our friend Ford made a video of the first day... check it out!

Cooking!

Cooking is sooo much harder here. THis is how you "puree" vegetables when you don't have a blender or food processor (or power). Some people have those things, but most people don't. This is my friend Gita. She's mashing up some onions. It's a marble slab that's not polished and they use a big rounded rock and just roll/mash! It's cool!!

MasterChef Australia!!!

MasterChef Australia is a great show! When it's on, we get it 5 days a week. There are TONS of episodes. The thing that makes it really cool is that the judges and contestants are all so nice! The contestants don't stab each other in the back and they even help each other! Anyway, the other night (a couple of weeks ago) some friends of ours were in town and wanted to go to Chili's, so we went over to the mall to eat :) When we got there we saw that the bookstore had the Judges (and very famous chefs/restaurant owners) inside signing cookbooks! When we got inside, they had just closed off the line, so we weren't allowed to go through the line and get them to sign a cookbook or get a pic with them :( So... we stood as close as we could and took pics :) haha! (and I didn't have my camera, only my phone to take pics)... Here's Gary... Here's George with my friend Amy :) And my at...
