Khao Thom from Pakse

February 2, 2010

For breakfast I ate khao thom made by Aunt Kiane and the rest of the relatives for the Morning Alms Offering (Giving) after Grand-Mama’s funeral. It is a tradition to give out the left-over to relatives and friends.

I found it comforting and was reminded of the same old tradition from my sister’s funeral when I was a young kid in Laos. So much memories and so much emotions but so loss of words to express my feelings at that moment.
