The Mystery Guest Blogger (otherwise known as
my wife) is in Ohio now, along with her mother and brothers. They’re
there for a family reunion. I opted to stay home by myself, which
usually means I eat out of a can. Opening a can of baked beans and heating some
hot dogs is the extent of the trouble I go to to feed myself.
But - on the weekends,
Trang visits.
Shrimp, dusted in a little flour, wrapped in rice paper, and quick fried in some oil. Of course
some dipping sauce,
made from nước mắm (fish sauce), some sliced fresh peppers (the hotter
the better), a little garlic, and carrot slices to make it look nice,
are essential.

the next time I do a posting on this topic, I will have to do a
self-portrait so you can see the pleasure Trang’s food brings me. How
do you say “yummy” in Vietnamese?
And she cooks - I mean she cooks!
