This week I purchased the ingredients for Red Thai Curry, a fantastic dish I was first introduced to at Bangkok Pavilion in my wonderful home of Kansas City. It has fantastic, varied texture, a medley of rose-tinted colors, and a scent sure to get any curry enthusiast's saliva glands working overtime.  After returning from the grocery store with my bag of goodies, I wasted no time in preparing my meal.  My shopping list included:    1 bag sticky sushi rice  1 can coconut milk  Red Thai curry paste  fresh basil leaves  fresh anise leaves  1 green bell pepper  1 red onion  1 tomato  1 bag frozen peas  lemon grass  Total time from preparation to serving is about 45 minutes, so set aside at least an hour just in case there's an unforeseen complication.

Gabe: I've gone through all the Dickerdoodle pictures I received and I've got some good ones to share. It was too hard to pick just one winner so I ended up picking a top three and they will all get a brand new Nintendo DS. First let's start with the runners up though.This mans fervor is impressive.I know I didn't ask for vagaina cookies but come on, that's awesome. The "Barbra Walters" filter on this one makes it look so classy.Is cookie porn a real thing?He just seems so Innocent. Like maybe this is his first dickerdoodle.See! Size really doesn't matter.Sadly he choked to death shortly after this picture was taken.She's ambitious and I respect that.I pretty sure this was actually their Christmas card.Alright now on to the winners. Remember each of these chefs will receive their very own Nintendo DS. -3rd Place -These guys win for sheer size. That's just a lot of Dickerdoodle.-2nd Place-This one is just awesome. The presentation alone is great but then you start seeing little details like the penis reference photos. -1st Place-I fucking love this photo. We can tell by her shirt that her dad has forced into helping make these cookies. We can also tell that she is not amused. His expression is actually unreadable. Is he confused? Is he angry? I have no idea what he's thinking but it's priceless. I also love that with some extra dough he made the Quake symbol. So rad.   Thanks to everyone who entered. I hope you all enjoyed your Dickerdoodles. Winners, I'll be getting in touch with you so I can get your info for the prizes.   -Gabe out
