Once again we are off to lands far away as we continue on The Bread & Soup Project. This time, we’re off to central west Africa and the Republic of Cameroon. For our usual comparison, it’s just a shade larger than California, by about 8%, but only has 2/3 the population. As a former split… Read More The Bread & Soup Project #33 – Cameroon

I’m not going to make any excuses for the long gap since the last entry in this project a year ago at the start of the quarantine. I just lost track. I do have good intentions to get back on with it, but, who knows? Maybe I’ll still be doing this 30 years from now when… Read More The Bread & Soup Project #32 – Cambodia

Oh boy, this is a long, photo intense one…. Prepare yourselves! Time for our next entry in The Bread & Soup Project! So, what do we know about Burundi? Nothing. None of us know anything about it. Admit it. It’s a small, landlocked country in the middle of Africa, bordered by Rwanda, Tanzania, and the Democratic… Read More The Bread & Soup ProjeQt #31 – Burundi

When I started The Bread & Soup Project, my method of “randomizing” was simply to hit each country in turn, alphabetically.

In short order, however, while I was still suckling at a warmed… Read More The Bread & Soup Project #30 – Burkina Faso

I really need to get moving on this project or I’m still going to be working my way through the S’s when I’m 90…. On to our next country, Bulgaria. North of Greece and Turkey, south of Romania, east of Macedonia and Serbia, and the east coast borders on the Black Sea. Not surprisingly, its cuisine… Read More The Bread & Soup Project #29 – Bulgaria

How many of you can point to Brunei on a map? Me neither, until now. How many even have a clue in what part of the world it is? I mean it sounds like something African, or Middle Eastern, or… well, it’s Southeast Asian…. In the midst of Indonesia, is the island of Borneo. We’ve… Read More The Bread & Soup Project #28 – Brunei

I know, I know. I keep saying I’m going to get this project back on track more regularly, and then not doing it. I do have the best of intentions when I say it, I’m just not good with the follow-through…. So hey, instead of a roughly four-year project as envisioned at the beginning, with… Read More The Bread & Soup Project #27 – B.V.I.
