Weekend Escape

We took a quick jaunt to California's armpit this weekend.

Shall we skip the nitty gritty and get to the real reason why I travel?

MEAL NUMERO UNO


Pad See Ew at Lotus of Siam

It is 72 hours later and I am still dying. It's like every other place I have had this dish is a mere copycat. 

Afterwards, le husband and I heard about a gathering of food trucks downtown. We hussled our tooshes past the glittering lights, got our hands stamped, and stood under heat lamps eating sweet, sweet fresh churros. 

MEAL NUMERO DOS


Just the best melt in your mouth meaty goodness I've ever had.

And yes I ate them with bacon au gratin potatoes. 

And yes I had room for cake

MEAL NUMERO TRES


So this one time when I lived south of campus I found a little restaurant called Dew that served these things called banh mis. Then, this other time when I was in Las Vegas le husband found a little sandwich shop called Dakao that served banh mis that blew Dew's out of the water. 

Hello fresh, buttery french bread, my name is Rachel and this is my mouth. 


It has been a year and a half and I still have yet to to get a camera cord, thus all images were pilfered from the internet for educational purposes.

Nerd For Life



Harold will always be my first love. 
Here I am sitting in comfortable silence, surrounded by my musty, colorful friends, and I can not imagine a more perfect way to spend the evening. 
My shoes are off and I'm hoarding books in my little cubby. 

Hello old friends. It's good to be back.

New Identity Business

My job requires me to say my name like 50 times a day.


"Hi, Mr. I-Just-Totalled-My-Car, this is Rachel Morrison with United Insurance group..."

I say it so many times, I'm actually starting to believe that I am this person.


The best part, though? I get to sign it all the time, and no one thinks I'm creepy because it's not scribbled all over my 19th Century European Art History notes.

Classiness


Yes. This is what I look like when I admire a Rothko.
