Rice Balls

After yesterday's post, I am not sure if this pick can be worse. But I am trying. Some of these tracks were on yesterday's playlist, but I added to them to stay in the Asian field. Unlike Pocohantas, I really have Asian DNA, so I can make fun of part of myself. I'm not sure if some of these are disparaging slurs or were meant as such when they were written, but they could be seen as such. Heck, I was looking for that. All I can say is that I can live without a lot of things, but one I would have trouble with is rice. I could do without bread or potato, but rice would be hard to give up. Rice balls, bowls of rice, rice treats. Yumm! Indonesian rice, Indian rice, Spanish rice, Vietnamese rice balls, they're all good. Has nothing to do with these songs, but now you know more about me.
