I would normally be more self depricating but I am trying not to do that anymore.

I was kind of embarrassed because it's sort of a weird thing to do, but now I'm glad I did it because I can still remember how those particular meals tasted.<br /><br />I'm sure if you were to photograph a meal it might look like a commercial because it would be so exquisite and perfect, which is what I like so much about your photos. I just kind of moved the paper napkins and the chopsticks out of the way and phocused on the phood.Cyndyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11787927933858782267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6906849261938947265.post-74651616791984455322009-12-01T15:24:21.352-05:002009-12-01T15:24:21.352-05:00This is a weird thing to say, maybe, but you take ...This is a weird thing to say, maybe, but you take really good shots of food. I couldnt imagine how to take them so they dont look like a commercial. You did. They look appetizing and artistic at the same time.Brother Without Orderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11907615698103709978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6906849261938947265.post-79615410065672697242009-11-04T09:43:25.812-05:002009-11-04T09:43:25.812-05:00Mike - That's a great story about the Pham Pha...Mike - That's a great story about the Pham Phamily! We used to go to that pho place in Wheaton back when we lived in our "real" house. There's a much nicer branch of the same restaurant in downtown Silver Spring. I remember being an amateur pho phan, and pho to go is definitely not the same experience as eating it there.<br /><br />Barbara - Yes, it's a great alternative to chicken soup!Cyndyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11787927933858782267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6906849261938947265.post-69820174866574947592009-10-30T19:32:35.188-04:002009-10-30T19:32:35.188-04:00Pho is definitely Vietnamese comfort phood!Pho is definitely Vietnamese comfort phood!Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18356998698106275372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6906849261938947265.post-78279929257711031962009-10-29T08:07:21.071-04:002009-10-29T08:07:21.071-04:00I like the pic of the out building.

When I first moved to Maryland, we rented a place in Wheaton, and the former residents were the Pham family. One of the people in the family ran an audio/stereo mail order business out of the townhouse, and they called it Phamtastic Speakers, or something like the. We used to refer to them as the Pham Phamily, and I came across <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_yUXSmYO_o-s/SumC2v-rxsI/AAAAAAAAA0c/gZzWcdVpDGw/s1600-h/PHAMLY.JPG" rel="nofollow">this</a> vanity plate two days ago that reminded me of them.<br /><br />My wife and I once tried out this sketchy looking Pho place in a strip mall on University Blvd. Nobody spoke English. We got takeout, and they handed us a container of broth and a big bag of what looked like mixed greens. We looked at each other like, "what are we supposed to do now?"
