A San Francisco Quickie

I went home real quicckkk this past weekend to see my family and to attend a friend's wedding.  It flew by so fast but was so much fun!

Delta made our Friday trip home a nightmare and we ended up taking 15 hours to get to S.F (but gee thanks for the $6 food voucher Delta!) so I missed my family dinner but my mom did leave us some leftovers =) And I even got to see my beloved grammy!

This precious face came to pick me up at the airport...why no man has snatched up all of thizzz is a mystery...

Mom's Ca Nuong--Roasted Catfish--but we Phams like to fry the whole damn thing so the skin's extra crispy with lots of toasted peanuts and sauteed green onions!

Mom's Goi--my mama's shrimp and pork salad! YUMMS

Woohoo! Belated b-day presents!!
 

WEDDING DAY!
CONGRATULATIONS TO HENRY  & ANNA!
Gorgeous venue in Fremont

Beautiful day for a beautiful occasion


Scoping out the snack table to follow after the reception =P

One of the best moment of the day--when Anna arrived by horse carriage
