Congratulations, lovebirds!

Our cousin got married on 1/1/11. How cool is that??? C+J, you sure know how to throw a party!

It was our first family wedding as a married couple so, for the first time, no one was telling us, "You're next!!!". Instead, it was, "When's the baby coming???". But we had a great time. Weddings are so much fun, although married life is way better...well, at least one of us thinks so.

Dat Thanh

We celebrated Christmas in Orange County with our families. Before heading back up, we needed one more Vietnamese food fix to tide us over.

Their cuon, bun and com tam were solid — fresh-tasting, not too greasy and only slightly mystery-meatish.

As we pulled out, we saw this thing...

...but judging from the LA Times, OC Register and others, Dat Thanh is already on the map.
