“Hainan chicken rice is a dish you’ll find in any Southeast Asian country where there are Chinese immigrants. The Malaysian method is to cook the rice with pandan leaves and lemongrass.

BIO SKETCH OF J. R. R. Tolkien (1892 – 1973) ** JRR Tolkien was born in South Africa; January 3, 1892. He was kidnapped by one of the natives; though not for ransom - but rather for bragging rights. (Grotta's biography supplies additional details.) ** His health was very fragile and so at the age of 3, his mother took him to England, hoping his health would improve. His health did improve but they never returned to Africa because his father died. ** Both of his parents died…

When NoiseCash first introduced the channels a lot of members gave them a try. A lot of members also stopped posting to the channels after trying them out.

I enjoy dabbling in #ancienthistory, #legends, and #mythology. One time I watched a documentary on TV about the Greek and Roman gods.

HISTORICAL ROMANCE NOVELS The first historical romance novel I ever read was "The Velvet Promise". It was the love story of Gavin and Judith Montgomery. He stood tall like a tower over her and was ruggedly handsome; and she was just a pretty tiny little thing. But she stood up to him as if she were a man twice his size. Once I read their love story, I wanted to know what the other Gavin's brothers were like. The second, third,and fourth novels are: "Highland Velvet", "Velvet…
