My First Favorite: 5 Star Pho
http://intlxpatr.wordpress.com/ 2008/ 05/ 18/ my-first-favorite-5-star-pho/This is usually my very first stop when I get to Seattle. I CRAVE the 5 Star Pho salad rolls. They know me; they know I often stop on the way to my parent’s house to pick up an order, they have seen me fuzzy and smelly from my long travels. I bring my sisters and they put up with our laughter and chatter, I take my Mom here for noodle soup and green tea.

Having A Big Shit In The Nest
http://buckfrain.wordpress.com/ 2008/ 05/ 17/ having-a-big-shit-in-the-nest/Seeing as I’ve begun to bite the hand that feeds me, I might as well do the job properly and gnaw the fucker right off.
