She's such an outstanding cook we eat better at home than any of the restaurants in the Seattle-Tacoma area.
Oh yeah, she can buy Lemon Grass locally but expensive. Damn shame if you ask me they grow it in the roadside gutter in Thailand. Maybe why Customs had such a hard-on for it.
Thanks TS I think we'll make some Tom Yum Talay shortly.

You guys should have great Asian markets there in the Seattle area! Just need to find them. I get lemon grass
here at Lee Lee's for a dollar a bunch. And the galangal and Thai chilies are also fairly cheap.
