Rice Run Nov 29, 2024
An unusual Rice Run as I couldn’t do shopping on Friday. Bubby and I went to Makro and purchased the dried pork at the Klong Toei market on Thursday. We then drove to Boss storage room to find it flooded again…
The Thai restaurant next door pours cooking oil into the sink every once in a while and it all arrives into our storage… We arranged with Boss staff to have it cleaned, packed the car ready for Friday and left the truck in Boss’ parking lot ready to go…
On Friday, our volunteers drove the car to Rong Moo and delivered all 61 bags of rice along with cooking oil, fish sauce and dried pork.
