Chicken Pho | Rainy Day Comfort

Quick note: If you’re a dog-lover, and I hope that you are, hop on over to Just Weimaraners.

Barry hosted the 37th annual Bruce and Barry Holiday Party this year at our home. Two of our guests, Joyce and Louie, were kind enough to bring us some of their Mexican limes and oranges from their yard.  This morning, I decided I was going to use them to make my version of Barry’s favorite [...]
