There was a Thai restaurant in our old neighborhood called POO PING
PALACE. Nobody used to want to go there with me for some reason. I just
ordered delivery and didn't tell my husband the name of the place for a
long time. They went out of business about a week after my kitchen remodel
was finished; I feel responsible somehow. :-(
