I'm sitting here listening contently to all the sounds inside and outside my home. The rain is falling lightly. Dogs are barking. An ambulance siren blares on a nearby busy street. The dishwasher is competing with the sound of the television that John is watching in the family room. The keyboard is making a "tap tap" sound as I sit and type this entry. Praise music is softly seeping through my speakers on the computer. All of these things comprise the sounds of life, the sounds of a simple, yet happy home. Not only is my heart content to hear all these sounds, but my stomach is also content after a wonderful dinner. You really have to like the sweet and savory tastes together to enjoy this recipe. I am one who always enjoys that combination.
2 cups coconut cream (this can be found in the liquor section at the grocery store)
1/2 small fresh pineapple, peeled and chopped into large cubes
2 tbsp Thai red curry paste (found in the Asian section of the grocery store)
