Happy Thanksgiving!

Something to be thankful for:

Our annual bag of Hachiya persimmons from a great (this always upgrades them from "good") friend! 

Sounds like one of those "oh no, not another what I'm thankful for paper" that we had to write in the ___ (fill in the blanks) grade. In retrospect, the Missus and I have much to be thankful for. We have each other, our health, family, and in spite of the difficult economic times, we're making due. God knows we're eating well!

But there's even more to be for us to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. Be it ever so humble, this is post 1000 ! Yes, we've made a thousand.

We've had a great couple of years, and I personally, could never have imagined we'd have made it this far. Hard to believe that I've crossed so much of my list; Bun Cha, Banh Mi, and Cha Ca in Hanoi.

Pad Thai from street carts in Chiang Mai, Naem from a stall on the shores of the Mekong, Cuy made especially for us in Cusco, Cebiche in Lima, and even Deep-fried Cheese Curds in Madison. Boy, have we put in the miles!

Hopefully, we're not done yet!

So right now, the entire gang at mmm-yoso would like to thank you for visiting. We'd never have hung around this long without you!

The Missus and I are taking it easy this Thanksgiving, but we wanted to wish you all:

Happy Thanksgiving! From the gang at mmm-yoso!!!
