Oh No!!!!

So, our favorite place that we shop is at the PVS mall... It's the only "western-type" place in our whole city... there's nothing anything like it anywhere else near us...there's a store in the mall that is the closest thing we have to Wal-Mart... it has all the basic stuff that we need all in one store!! (so we don't have to go to a million stores :)
Well, one day, while we were up in the mountains we got a TON of phone calls!! Everyone was telling us that there was some kind of short-circuit... and our PVS mall had pretty much burned up.... It was a very sad thing :( Our favorite store is GONE!!! :(
Well, ends up, that the whole mall wasn't damaged... so our two western restrauants (Pizza Hut & McDonalds) might be opening in the next couple of days :) Which would be awesome!! I"ll keep you posted :)
WHile we were up in the mountains, I got an email from my sister telling me that she sent me a postcard from Chicago, but she forgot to put the postage on it... Well, when I got home, guess what was waiting for me??? HER POSTCARD!!! How crazy is that?? hahaha awesome!

yeah, that's what we've heard :) But it will take a while, and we'll probably be living in the capital by then :) Oh well :)

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!

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...

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!!
