Phuket

With the help of three friends, one dad, two trucks (two trips each) and one carload, I moved into my new apartment. It took us just over two hours to do the move. I am so lucky to have such great friends and family with good spacial skills, strong arms, reliable vehicles and speed! Emily impressed us all by taking down my bookshelves in a matter of minutes!

We then headed to Phuket for some award-deserving Thai food. 5 different entrees, lemongrass chicken, phad thai, pineapple and green curries and pad see yoo, all enjoyed in a very fun, laid back, nice booth that you could imagined was indeed modeled after it's cousin on the actual island of Phuket. Beers (Singha and Pyramid Hef were joined by many others on the list) for $3.75? Also awesome. Served with an ice cold glass.

The tofu was the perfect firmness and all the dishes' ingredients were balanced well. In the past, their pineapple fried rice has never lived up to my expectations in regard to the level of pineapple, but it's not a big enough deal to keep me from ordering it again. Actually, I think I get a gold star for ordering something different than a dish I know I enjoy at a restaurant. Gold star! Glorious new apartment! Great day!
