Nom Nom Nom Nom...



LUNCH

Hey folks!

I hope everyone is having a great Tuesday. The weather here in Tucson is SOOOOOOOO incredibly fickle, one day its bright and beautiful (evidence) and the next it looks like it can be the backdrop for an old Hitchcock flick. Despite the caliginous weather my day has been busy and fun. I got to see some great clients that always make me laugh and my energy level is waaay up. Not bad for a Tuesday, eh?

Often times lunch is such a rushed meal for me being that I just eat and go due to work rather than set time aside to enjoy it, so often times I rarely have anything exciting to blog about. BUT, lunch today was definitely worth posting. I had yummy homemade Vietnamese beef noodle soup aka Phở. For those who haven't had the pleasure of being introduced to this special soup, you're definitely missing out.

The creation of the broth is a timely process of boiling beef bones over night and requires a lot of attention and patience not to mention a plethora of different spices and ingredients. The finish product is topped with different cuts of beef and eaten with rice noodles and fresh basil. I love to eat this soup but it's been years since I've made it myself at home. Sometime this month I will be making it for a weekend dinner for both Newt and my parents and I promise I will post the recipe. In the mean time...enjoy the pictures ;)

I guess the weather girl wasn't lying when she said it was going to be 10* cooler today


Here are the goods:



And for fun's sake...here's Boogsie
