Indian Food

If I had to choose a favorite food, I would probably choose Indian food. It is just sooo good. American food really is bland in comparison. Indian food just makes my taste buds sing.

Yesterday, I had Indian food for lunch. I filled my to go boxes from the lunch buffet. They had coconut soup on the menu. I'm not one for Oriental soups; egg drop soup is blah to me, so I wasn't going to get any of the coconut soup. I then decided to be adventurous and fill up a to go bowl (I also tried a new salad, chicken tikka salad, it was good).

I get home and eat my food. I opened the coconut soup, smelled it (I always do that, usually it has to pass the smell test before I'll taste something), and it smelled sweet, so I tentatively got a small spoonful. "Mmmm," good first bite. I got another spoonful, and then another. Then, I put down my spoon, and drank the rest of the soup in about two seconds.

It was so good. All I think the soup consisted of was coconut milk, sugar, and maybe some saffron. What's not to like?

If Indian food makes my taste buds sing, that coconut soup made my taste buds sing an opera!

Today I'm dreaming of coconut soup...
