Day One Hundred Fifty Four 2013

Daughter Kelly and son in law Kerry treated Neil and me to a fabulous dinner at House of Thai this evening here in our little town. This restaurant has been here forever, and we’ve heard the food is delicious, but we have become set- in- our- ways old fogies who never try anything new. Neil and I had no idea what to expect, but we were pleasantly surprised by how wonderful the food is. I enjoyed the Avocado Shrimp [with onions, asparagus and almonds with rice]. I’m sure a return visit is in order in the near future. Thanks, Kelly and Kerry, for encouraging us to step outside our little box and try something totally different.

Part of the secret of success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside.

That’s what Neil and I did this evening for supper at Ocha Thai food deli. After surviving the demon stomach virus, we decided we could handle something hot and spicy. If the food decides to fight it out inside, at least it tasted yummy on the way down.

Lunch! Thai food at Ocha Deli today. Rice and spicy chicken. Can you say yummy?!

Day Sixty Three 2011

Grandson Elijah spends Fridays at my house. Today he was running a fever and was feeling miserable, but he said he wanted to go to Ocha (our fave Thai food deli) for some spicy chicken and rice (his fave). By the time we got there, all he wanted to do was sleep in his mom's lap. So we put his meal in a to-go box and took it home. When Granddaughter Shelby got home from school and realized there was Ocha leftovers, she had to have some (it's her fave, too). Elijah was a good boy and shared his meal with her. And here they are, enjoying their rice and spicy chicken. Also, notice the little cat face there beside Shelby, waiting for his chance to grab a bite of the goodies. (He was not successful). Wishing one and all a happy TGIF!
