Pho-tastic Night
By Naomi February 17, 2015 entree, friends, personal
Yesterday was one of my most productive days in a while. I ran all my errands, studied a bit, cleaned my entire house from top to bottom, and as you may have noticed - completely re-did my blog layout! It is now fresh and usable, which is in my opinion, much better than what it looked like before. The only thing is that I lost a lot of comments from my past few posts, but hey, that's okay.
While I re-vamped my blog, I worked from my bed. The blogger system is based on templates which are coded, and in order for me to personalize and streamline this blog, it meant that I had to play around with the coding. To a person who has no formal html training, it was frustrating at times, but everything seems to run smoothly now!
I spent most of my afternoon working on refining the coding and finished working out the kinks just in time to watch the sun set.
Lamenting over the fact that the weather right now has dipped significantly compared to the temperature a few weeks ago, and feeling exhausted from a long days of non-stop errands, I decided that it was time to finish it off with a bowl of delicious noodles.
Not wanting to go alone, I texted my friends to see when they would be ready to leave. The girls and I piled up into my car and we drove into the frigid Winter night, in search of something to fill out tummies. We eventually settled on a quaint and cozy restaurant close to downtown.
The three of us ordered a Smörgåsbord of different items ranging from soup noodles, and vermicelli, to salad wraps and steaming hot beef baguettes.
A beef vermicelli wrap for me, and a pho and vermicelli bowl for the girls!
2 hours later, we found ourselves surrounded by empty plates and feeling extremely satisfied.
There's honestly very few things better than a delicious meal surrounded by good company and warm conversations. As we giggled over everything from things that happened at work, to things that we want to do together, I realized how sweet these times are.
Today however marks the end of these random and spontaneous nights because all three of us are going to be packed with work. The next time we'll have a free night like this won't be until the flowers start blooming and the sun starts coming out. I'm definitely excited for the weather to warm up though, if only it could come sooner.
