Double Stuffed: Macaroni and Cheese Party

Kraft Macaroni and Cheese Party!

Due to the large supply (as in…two CASES) of Mac and Cheese that I was blessed to receive from the Grants when they visited me in February, I decided to share (ration) the wealth and host a Kraft Macaroni and Cheese party for my classmates. On Thursday, 1 March, we all sat down to induldge in the wonderous taste of delicious processed orange cheese and tube macaroni. We ate over eleven boxes of Mac, and chased it down with another one of America’s finest: Double Stuffed Oreos. It turns out both are quite a luxury here in Thailand, and extremely hard to come by. We made an event out of it – and had a blast!

Thank you so much Jon and Linda for the delicious Mac and Cheese :)

What You Didn't Know about Thailand

#6: An estimated 300-400 babies are born in Bangkok each year in taxis and tuk-tuks en route to hospital because of slow traffic.
# 5: Longest Name: Bangkok currently holds the Guinness record for having the longest name of a place. Apparently “Bangkok” is just the short version because the city’s ceremonial name is “Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Yuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit.” Say what?
#4: Paparazzi: According to the Thai media, the estimated public gathering of 1 million people on 9 June 2006, to celebrate HM The King’s 60th year – was the largest public gathering in history to celebrate a royal event. Take that William and Kate!
#3: Flower Power: The Orchid is Thailand’s best flowering export. Exports of the Orchid are valued at US$250million per annum.
#2: My Kind of Greeting: The Thai greeting “sawatdee” was invented during the Second World War. Before that, people greeted each other by asking if they had eaten yet.
#1: Hot! Hot! Hot! Bangkok was named the hottest city in the world by the World Meteorological Organization. It may not be the hottest city in the world every single day but you can be sure it’s pretty consistent!
