The Celebration of All That is Good!
The Cambodian Shela
For Shela 2005, my very first celebration was dedicated to the good things of Cambodia. I knew next to nothing about Cambodia when I decided to celebrate it! I explored Cambodian music, food, culture, and history. I found in Cambodia a lifelong treasure! I absolutely fell in love with the music, and I have continued listening to Cambodian music long after the 2-week period which I devoted to celebrating Cambodian culture. What a great treasure I discovered there! I am including here the recipes, links to music, and other cultural resources that I used in my own celebration of Cambodia.
