Would you believe I had pho for the first time in my life this past thanksgiving? I'd never had it before & lori steered me right. It was so good.
Having a bit of nerves about tomorrow. It'll pass.
I still remember my Aunt Carol visiting when I was 4. I remember sitting on the back patio as she dried her hair (she had long long hair.) She's the one who had a heart attack not long ago.
For the first time in her life, she has short hair. Or rather, no hair. Chemo. Ovarian. She's been looking for neon mohawk wigs.
I don't think I've ever had pho.
IT"S REALLY GOOD!
Oops, capslock. But true.
I picked up some oxtails on a whim the other day and may attempt to make pho. At some point.
Eta: because sarameg is correct
She's been looking for neon mohawk wigs

Of course I have a link for this sort of thing.
Pho is really, really good.
I had my housewarming party tonight, with my co-workers and former co-workers stopping by to take a look at the place. I think it went well. At the very least , I had 7 out of 8 possible attendees, which definitely beats the 1 out of 11 that made me swear off throwing parties a few years ago.
We even got the teatotaller to try some red wine, which she said wasn't bad though it clearly wasn't to her taste. I am laughing at everyone eating the cherries and apricots off my fruit trays and leaving the carambola slices, though.
I'm good, Kat.
I think my first pho was with Kat and Lori. And it was my last pho, for no good reason.
Picking up shrimp pasta on the way home. Mmm.
