11.26am - some new ginseng tea, after FINALLY getting to sleep in!
2.29pm - can you see the rainbow in front of the buildings? On the drive to Silver Lake, past downtown LA.
2.53pm - after all the feasting this week, all we wanted was a good bowl of pho. So we trekked over to the Pho Cafe in Silver Lake, which is supposed to have the best pho in LA. And they were actually open on Christmas Day!
2.53pm - Vietnamese crepe, made from rice flour and stuffed w/ shrimp, lemongrass steak and mung beans. You eat pieces of it wrapped in a thin rice paper sheet, along with some of the veggies in the front, and dipped in the peanut sauce in front. Shared with Ritesh - very yummy.
3.10pm - and my fabulous bowl of veggie pho - they weren't kidding when they said this was the best broth in the city! Fabulous! Ritesh had the chicken pho, which was also great.
8.28pm - flax seed spaghetti w/ a harissa based pasta sauce and some garlic naan, at home, with Ritesh
9.25pm - coconut-curry Phinney chocolate, at home, with Ritesh, while watching Man On Wire, a fabulous documentary about Philippe Petit, the French high wire walker who walked on a wire strung between the two towers of the World Trade Center, when they were still standing. Check out the trailer - it'll blow you away. My favorite documentary of the year, hands down.
12.12am - chai tea Phinney chocolate, at home, with Ritesh, while watching the first five (!) episodes of Damages
