Anything but Bland
When we think rice, we think plain, bland, and boring. Like a side dish of white rice.
But in a land where there are 5 words for what we call "rice," it's obvious there's something more to it. Menus offer dozens of rice dishes. Temples are covered with rice offerings. People wear rice on their forehead as a blessing. In Indonesia, rice is life.
So we thought it was time to enter the belly of the beast...
And we found ourselves admiring "rice" for hours on end...
Leaving with no question in our mind that "rice" is ANYTHING but bland!
So here's to seeing the beauty--not the bland--in everything, and feeling good...'cause after all it's Friday!

Australia is Aussie-some!
From en’joey-ing the unique wildlife, to appreciating the koala-ty vegetation, to pond’ering the remoteness of the Outback.
Tradition Lives
India is a land full of ancient history, diverse culture, and breathtaking geography.
From taking in the Indus-scribable views, to seeing what the Taj of the town is all about, to realizing that this is as good is it Ghats.
