Smelly chicken and sugar rice

Back in the Philippines now, adjusting to hot season (hello banana shakes!). We went shopping right after we got back for the essentials, ie rice, and look at what we found:

For those who can't tell (I won't ask why), these bags say 'sugar' but are actually filled with rice. bins and bins of rice filled sugar bags...

And while we were gone, we had 9 of our chickens stolen. Bummer! And we lost one the other day. She died and we tossed our outside our gate, about 30 feet away. Of course, the slight breeze would blow from that location towards our house. And of course, it would be right into the office window, where I am sitting all day today at the radio. So, in lieu of air conditioning, I set up our fan with a blueberry candle burning behind it. It's quite nice. Why, you may ask, don't you just move the bird to some other location. Hmm....two day old bird, tropical decaying process...I don't think so.
