Home cookn

Reminder: as temperatures heat up food tends to spoil quicker.

Spaghetti sauce, a kilo of fresh tomatoes with sirloin and coconut milk.
.

Not just for spaghetti, also great with rice or spuds.

Probably half a dozen meals.  I do all my cooking in bulk and then freeze it for quick microwave meals.

Engine fire onboard Bangkok bound flight February 2018

Smoke was noticed from the engine shortly after takeoff from Sakon Nakhon Airport.  The aircraft returned safely to Sakon Nakhon.
I was having a beer across the street from the runway, did not observe the plane landing, but heard the engine, which seemed louder than normal as the aircraft was reducing speed on the runway.
Only airline mishap in the 15 years I've lived in SNO

Sakon FC does a last minute win

Chaiyaphum scored the first goal. Sakon Nakhon retaliated with their own goal fifteen minutes later.  It looked like a tie game. With four minutes added to the game, sakon Nakhon FC scored with just two minutes to spare.  
After the second game of the season, Sakon FC stands in 8th place and could have been on sixth place had it not been for the two goals it allowed in the season opener. 
Next game Sunday, Feb 25 at Nong Bua Pichai FC
