Utter Utor Hooey
First noticed Utor last Sunday, August 11, as it was approaching the Philippines:
It was too early to forecast what would happen a week later.
Provinces forecast to experience drenching according to THE NATION article are highlighted in yellow.
I don't see any local devastation caused by UTOR, with the center of the storm heading northwest
I've mentioned tentacles. I suspect a t-storm here and there,mostly cloudy, a rain shower
Unless of course UTOR happens to decide to follow the road signs
It was too early to forecast what would happen a week later.
These things can do a lot of unexpected twists and turns.

I'm surprised not to find UTOR caution flags for northern Thailand.

...Eating OFF the Menu...
You can go to any restaurant and ask if they can prepare a meal not on their menu.
It's all a matter of available ingredients and preparation time.
They're not going to do it if the restaurant is at capacity crowd.
Most often they are willing for a SPECIAL PRICE.
Writes Apple's Dan:
"It has been years since I had some good French Toast. So I made some."
Wonder if that comes with Canadian Maple syrup now available locally at a high price

*Mothers Day Thailand *
If you are not a daily contributor to monks,
you should do this on your birthday and other special occasions.
Such an occasion is today: August 12 is Mothers Day in Thailand.
Local food vendors have extra servings on hand for donations to the monks
On peak donation days pickup trucks accompany the monks to store the large volume of donations. The extra food is served to village poor
Various groups of monks from different temples make their rounds
After donations monks say a blessing. It is customary to pour water during this blessing
It's a family afair
