I like Asian food more than Asian people...is that bad? Maybe I like Asian people also, but I really, really like Asian food. Speaking of which, I've not had pho in a very long time. Meanwhile, my pho buddy is in Vietnam, probably eating all the pho he'd ever want. Well, hopefully he's eating. I think there might be a language barrier between him and his family. Perhaps the universal sign for "hungry" is rubbing the tummy...of course, that could mean "full" or "my stomach hurts" or "I'm with child."

The dinner on Saturday did not go as planned. Here's why:

1) Halibut is apparently not in season right now. An angry Asian dude (see? Why are Asians always angry?) that worked behind the seafood counter at Whole Foods informed us that halibut will not be in season for another 3 months. So we settled for stealhead trout, which was also good...but not halibut.
2) Lump crab meat is freakin' expensive! I really wasn't expecting it to be so pricey...so we settled for shrimp cocktail (which was also very nice, and less work).
3) I didn't have enough time to make dessert because my sister was a finalist (again) for the KTN talent show, and we had to watch. Fortunately, she was #1, so we could've left after her, but we decided to be polite and stay for a couple more contestants until we couldn't take it anymore. Thankfully, we were too full to have dessert by the end of the meal.

So yeah. Dinner was good, but not as good as it could've been. We had a nice weekend, especially today. Last night we pulled out the sofa bed and watched a movie, fell asleep watching it, woke up, watched Naruto DVDs, got hungry and ordered take out breakfast from IHOP, picked it up, ate it in bed while watching more Naruto, fell asleep and then Andrew had to leave. It was nice while it lasted though.
