This week in my world…
A pop of red on a grey afternoon; the kind of weather that teases with sprinkles here and there, but never quite commits to a full downpour.
Even the teeny-tinyest faerie houses have gotten into the Halloween spirit! 👻🎃
Every other year or so, my mom and I get a craving for Big Macs and go on a McDonalds date.
NO SHAME.

This week in my world…
Rain! 😊
Reason #86 why I’m marrying Son: he knows that the way to this girl’s heart is neither diamond rings nor fancy things… nope, it’s FLUFFY SOCKS. ðŸ˜
My mommy made me snickerdoodles for my birthday.
Coffee on milk.
My birthday present(s) to myself. If you don’t hear from me for a few days… this is why.
Fresh-baked bread, garlic dipping sauce. Addictively good.
Mushrooms. Meh.
Calimari is always tasty.
Pasta carbonara.
Yum.
Son and his OMG SO DELICIOUS squid ink seafood pasta. Holy cow, it was so good. We almost ordered another one to go.
So freaking good.
Birthday bundt cake! (With fluffy socks and a programming book!)
Light and dark.
Somewhere…

It’s true, book fairs were everything, and I still have our entire set of Boxcar Children books!
There are still good people in the world.

This week in my world…
I know it’s like, the most American thing ever, but I’m a sucker for moo shu pork.
A flower fell off one of our champaca trees, so Son put it in a bowl of water for me. MY OFFICE SMELLS SO GOOD.
Ham. Frico egg. Curry mayo. English muffin. Yum.
In this week episode of Son’s garden adventures… we somehow managed to wrangle an 8-foot trellis into our little Accord. 😂
The Big Mo’s Favorite Po-Boy for me…
…and the Gumbo Mumbo Platter for Son.
So delicious. And so much food… we ended up taking more than half of it home for dinner!
I’m ready to eat.
It appears our house has a very large spider problem… 😱
Delicate delicata.

Livin’ that wonton life.
This is now my go-to breakfast.
LA, you’re not too bad.
Tofu soup. No spice, thankyouverymuch.

Mario-themed Airbnb??? YES LET’S DO IT.

This week in my world…
WHAT IS EVEN HAPPENING.
All the ice cold pickles I can possibly stuff into one bánh mì… because it is 100 FREAKING DEGREES outside (and 90F inside) and every little bit of cold helps at this point.
This again…
You should be sensing a theme at this point… 😀
“This is really nem nÆ°á»›ng… look, they took a nem and they nÆ°á»›ng-ed it!”
This guy. I’m quite fond of him.
Before rolling.
After rolling!
Legit tom yum soup. Muuuuuch better than the one we tried last week.
Prik king. Because spicy fried pork belly, obviously.
Yep, him again.
An attempt at a vegan version of canh chua cá (Vietnamese sour fish soup) that was so good, even Son likes it!
Such good spicy tofu sushi.
This is what happens when you deep-fry a rice noodle.
My grandma’s recipe for chicken chow mein.
