Ice Dessert



YOU: Amberlee, are those beans in your sweet ice dessert?
ME: Why yes, yes they are.
YOU: And you’re okay with that?
ME: Yes, yes I am. (But I wasn’t at first. It took some getting used to.)


These pictures are of a tasty ice dessert Steve bought for us on Tuesday. It was a really hot day and this was a fabulous treat. They put in syrup, chewy things, fruit, and beans then top it off with shaved ice. Yum, yum.
I was describing chili to my students and some of them made faces because they caught on to the fact that we eat beans in salty food. I told them they probably wouldn't like it. Just like I didn't like these desserts when I first came.

Cultures. There's really nothing like chili or taco soup. They should try it sometime, too. Glad you like your ice dessert. Great on a hot day, huh?

I just LOVE the iced desserts in Asia!
