Cooking with Karaoke!

Last Sunday we had a small karaoke party at our apartment, for which one of our good friends Oiy made all the food. She spent most of the day in our kitchen, along with members of her family and friends, creating a bunch of delicious Thai dishes for us to try.

There isn’t much counter space in our kitchen, and certainly not enough for all the hours of food preparation that went on. So, the floor was put to good use.

Here's a close-up of several varieties of mushrooms used in preparing the food.

Doris and I are vegetarian, but not all guests at the party were, so Oiy prepared a curry for them, using these skewered fish as a key ingredient.

Even some of our younger guests helped with the cooking, which took hours and hours to complete.

Here are the finished products, along with a photo of all the contributors.

All the hard work evidently exhausted one of the cooks, who took a well-deserved snooze on our couch after dinner.

After everyone had their fill of the food, we launched into karaoke and an evening of fun.
