Thai Chicken with Cashews & Chiles There's a local Thai restaurant chain here that makes fairly impressive food. Some independent Thai places make slop, so as in all things, I'm a bit fussy.

The first image of the black tree [oak?] branches in front of the maples is also a keeper. Lots of them.


I'm moving this thread to a new archive!

Those geese are looking a little plastic, there, Donna.
