excellent new restaurant

TAGS: None

Co-workers plugged me into this fabulous Asian restaurant in the north metro region. It’s called Mongkok. The Pad Thai is very good IMHO. It’s short on ambience, but the quality of the food delivered is really excellent. We all seem to get served at different times which is strange, but I can tolerate strange when the food is just that good.

Since they don’t appear to have a web site I’ll post a few items here.

Mongkok

Hours:
M-Th 11:00 - 9:00
F 11:00 - 9:30
S 4:00 - 8:30

hand lettered cards

TAGS: None

Yesterday, I received a hand addressed envelope in the mail from an unfamiliar address. This happens so rarely for me, it was actually exciting to me. I get a few cards for my birthday, but that’s the extent. The idea that someone took a few minutes to hand write me a note, and address an envelope by hand was actually very pleasing. It wasn’t my birthday, it wasn’t Christmas,

It brought pleasure to my day to wonder who would send me a card and to wonder why they would send it me.

The reality I discovered, after I opened the card, was a harsh let down.

It was a thank you note from my new dentist.

I should never have opened the card. Note to self, leave cards unopened.
