I got this "Sao Lao" t-shirt made available for purchase. "Sao" means 'girl' or 'young lady'. For the men, there is the i hum yie t-shirt. Every August long weekend my cousin, Vilaysith Sanoubane, organizes "bune Lao" which is a fundraiser festival for Wat Lao Veluwanh . It's an amazing event: a soccer tournament, concert bands, dancing, blessings from Buddhist Monks, food, and Lao merchandise. Over 5000 people attended. For just one day, it feels like you were in Laos. When I was not volunteering at the food booths, I sold the "Sao Lao" and the i hum yie t-shirts and donated the profits to Wat Lao Veluwanh . $22 donation ,towards the development of my blog, will get you the "Sao Lao" t-shirt. Youth sizes: 2, 6, L and Adult sizes: S, M, L, XL. Also refer to the List of product prices for all my Thai & Lao Food products.

Water Chestnut Dessert Dumplings

Image
These water chestnut dessert dumpling resembles tapioca pearl and but with crunch and colour. The advantage of the water chestnut dessert dumpling over tapioca pearl is that the dumplings do not thicken the dessert as stated in the Tapioca Pearl dessert . In my video, you'll see that made a dessert drink with green Ai-Yu Jelly, cantaloupe, honeydew melon, the colourful water chestnut dessert dumplings, and fresh coconut milk .
