Fit to be Thai'd

One of Janna's true loves in food are Thai "fresh rolls." Not the spring rolls fried, but the uncooked rolls in rice paper. In search of information and such, she found a site the sells the wrappers and a huge variety of other ingredients. The prices are insane, not like an import store at all, more like having a local Asian/Thai grocery for immigrants (= cheap prices) that happens to ship for the insane cost of 6 dollars. Which means if you order two things of curry paste, based on the difference between Stop & Shop and the cheaper authentic Thai stuff, you have already broken even on the shipping.

So tonight Janna is making fresh rolls and we're having a huge Thai dinner. I am so excited!

I love those rice paper rolls! They're great! Janna must be excited to be making them at home! Did she find the recipe online?

I find it surprising that you can find it cheaper online. In Sydney, Asia markets are quite common & sell items a lot cheaper. Things like noodles are much better from them than the "normal" grocer too. I suppose the advantage of being right next to Asia.

Have a great dinner! :) I'm jealous!
