Goodbye Atlanta!
Hello pho!
Best pho evar. |
I went to the country my first day here to visit the fam for a bit. Here's the ish about these Vietnamese people: they’ve been feeding me like some prized pig and absolutely do not understand the concept of being full. You know, like, not hungry anymore.
I say: I’m full.
They go: No, no you’re not.
I say: Yes I am. I’m dying. I want to throw up.
Them: You’re fine. Go throw up a lil and have some crab.
So thick and juicyyy |
Wish Mahtab were here lol. I’ve learned that if you just pretend like you’re eating, they leave you alone….
My best discovery so far....my relatives have a friggin sugarcane machine. CAN I PLZ HAS?
SUGARCANE JUICE = DAYUMMMMM. SO GUD.
Vietnamese also do some strange/mildly amusing shiz:
They ran out of incense so they use cigarettes. MMMmm, nothing smells better than lung cancer.
Here’s your everyday pair of chicken feet dangling on a calendar.
My relatives chillin’ at, you know, a cemetery.
Here's some delicious mess I ate so far:
whipping up all kindsa good shit |
Chom chom (rambutan) MAH FAV |
Soursop. Sweet mother of zombie Jesus... |
Durian. This made my whole room smell like wet socks and rotten eggs |
Chicken salad |
ANNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou in the mother country!!! How does it feel? Is it hot? Why don't we get the white noodles instead of clear for pho here??? Are you planning to go shopping!?Are you gonna come back speaking only Vietnamese to us? Don't eat too much stuff or else you might get sick. I went to an asiany store today to buy some shoes and saw these strange asiany ones and thought of you.
Love, Mai
LOL mai. It's not hot right now cuz it's fucking rainy. IDK why we don't have white noodles but I think tree's mom has them sometimes. Imma go shopping as soon as I come back from Hanoi. I barely know how to speak vietnamese now! I don't eat stuff that they don't give to me so hopefully I won't get sick...
