During Songkran, Daughter appeared at my door looking wan and I knew immediately she'd hit a brick wall with her revision. I HAD to get her out of the apartment before she went mad. I thought for a few seconds before working out what would lure her away from her books: a tour of the stationery department and a cup of tea in Starbucks. (She's like her mother!)
THAT meant braving the outside, where people were armed and shooting water guns. It was exactly what she needed; even before we got there we were hysterical with laughter, hanging onto our taxi doors to prevent anyone from opening them and spraying us. (Oh yes, they would!)
It was serene inside Emporium Mall. Check out this lovely display of traditional Thai silk making.

| How intricate is this pattern? |

| Gorgeous. I want these twists of silk for decoration |
 |
| Or I could just lie in it... |

| Oh! Drawers full. Heaven. |
I'm not quite sure of my facts but
I think this is Chansoma's Thai silk, possibly from Suan Chitralada's Royal Folk Art and Craft Center. I apologise for any errors I have made while crediting these products.
