help us eat

xmas breakfast here, the best thai-chinese morning joint:

chinese porridge w soft boiled egg and fish (or egg and pork), soy milk (home made, served w beans and skin), chinese donuts, ginger tofu soup (w mini chinese doughnut), egg noodles w duck, thai coffee! the parents ordered cow blood soup, but i did not try it.

another big soup dinner waiting for us at pong's house. the kind where there is a grill and hot pot of water are built into the table. you dip your meats and vegetables in for a few- with 8 or 10 people, it makes a great light and savory broth.

p.s. mom thinks i should be 110 lb, not 125 lb. steve, our mechanic, agreed previously, and today all of the four men at the table agreed at the table. but the owners of siam sunset did not agree. in that funny thai way, the husband and wife told my mom to leave me alone. mom says "you are american skinny, not asian skinny!" ha.

really hope this is a gift!: the grafter's handbook
