This memoir, peppered with authentic Balinese recipes, is a love letter to the food and culture of Bali

When Janet De Neefe stepped off the plane in Bali in 1974, she felt an immediate connection to this island paradise. Though curious about Bali's culture, its warm people and its mouthwatering cuisine, she didn't expect to fall in love with a Balinese man and make a new life there. Now, years later, Janet and her husband have four children and run two of the most successful restaurants in Bali.

In this delightful memoir, Janet shares entertaining stories of being 'gently shaped like warm rice for offerings' as she adapts to another culture and way of life. She offers insights into the ancient myths and rituals still alive in Bali today and passes on delicious recipes handed down through generations of her husband's family.

Fragrant Rice shows how the love, hope and warmth that makes this island such a special place is still very much alive today.

4 BUCKS PER PILLOWCASE. DEAL!
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Gray
SUPA MODERN Satin Pillowcase, Similar to Silk Pillow Cases Queen Size Set of 2. These silver pillowcases shine like metal, but they are worth 4 bucks a piece. My sister and I each tried one out. She loves how kindly the pillowcase treats her hair and her extensions; no snags, knottting, or rat nests. I love the way the material feels on my face; soothing and smooth. Definitely a good, affordable price for pillowcases, even shiny silver ones.

This pillow case helps keep me cool overnight. It's very comfortable. I've been sleeping on it every night for a long while now. Still holding up.

retty color, but the comfort isn’t there.
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Gray
I only received one pillowcase in my package, which was disappointing since it’s sold as a set of two. I’m also not a fan of this satin material — it runs hot and I end up sticking to it. The color is a pretty metallic silver, but the pillowcase itself feels cheap compared to brands like Kitsch. Overall, this one just isn’t for me.

Smooth Dreams & Frizz-Free Mornings
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Gray
These satin pillowcases are a total luxury upgrade without the silk price tag. The fabric feels buttery-smooth and cool against the skin—perfect for hot sleepers or anyone who loves that “fresh pillow” feeling all night long. I especially love how it helps tame bedhead and keeps my hair from getting tangled or frizzy while I sleep. The light grey color looks elegant and fits right into any bedroom style, and the envelope closure keeps the pillow snugly in place (no annoying slipping or bunching). They wash beautifully—no fading, pilling, or losing that silky finish. If you’ve been curious about silk pillowcases but don’t want the maintenance or cost, these satin ones are a perfect alternative. Cooling, soft, and hair-friendly—honestly, they make bedtime feel just a little more glamorous.

Luxurious look and feel
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Gray
These satin pillowcases in silver are so luxurious looking and feeling! I flop around at night and need a pillowcase like this to prevent the rats’ nests that form in my fine hair. The stitching is even and tight with no loose threads that I could see. The envelope pocket is plenty deep to keep your pillow contained. I didn’t see any washing instructions but from experience I will give them a quick handwashing in the sink and hang to dry.
