New Experience: Order Something New

February 22, 2010

Last week I had the worst head cold I've had in a very long time. It knocked me on my butt and held me down in bed and on the couch for 4 days while my brain leaked out of my eyes and my nostrils were sanded raw.

Olive didn't mind too much, what with all of the quality snuggling and nap time we were able to share. Until the end of the third day when she had had ENOUGH with this CRAP and we needed to PLAY right now BARK.

Then Friday at 11am, all of my symptoms just went away. Like magic. 10.30 I felt crappy and was making plans to leave work early; 11.00 I could think clearly and I had energy and felt happy to be alive. I finished out the day and carried my productivity home.

We had dinner with some friends this weekend at A Taste of Thai. I love Thai food, but usually follow a few standards that mainly keep me ordering the same food over and over: Pad Thai, cashew chicken, panang curry, masaman curry. A Thai rut of yumminess.

But this weekend I ordered something else, something I've never had before, something new. Sidewalk Noodle. I have no idea what this dish exactly is, because Sidewalk Noodles appears to be a category of Thai noodles that includes Pad Thai. It was not terribly memorable, but still good.

So I like this tiny coffee mug, but the name reminds me of a menstrual cup. That might be a dealbreaker. http://t.co/CI50TkhI 11 hours ago
