I don’t know, they look fiercer without the paint, LOL.

Is terracotta a combination of terramisu and ricotta? Sounds delicious.

Katy Texas, near Houston has a strange tourist attraction called Forbidden Gardens that was build by a Seattle millionaire named Poon.
Detailed models of Chinese life are exhibited here, but the feature attraction is the army of 1/3 life size terra cotta warriors that are exact replcas of those found in the Han Emperors tomb.
Check out this URL for a story and pics. http://www.roadsideamerica.com/story/10520
I say the place is strange because it doesn’t get much tourist traffic. I went out there on a Wed. morning and there were only 5 visitors. I don’t know how the place keeps running. Poon must give massive financial suport-—or maybe they were running China white inside the statues.

The name has a certain cachet or tang to it, doesn’t it.
