MOST ELIGIBLE FAMILY: Restaurant Review: Nanka
http://mosteligiblefamily.blogspot.com/2015/07/restaurant-review-nanka.html
The Foreign Service Adventures of a Writer, a Runner, and Two Rugrats. Tuesday, July 14, 2015. John and I each ordered a drink to start. I had a glass of okay prosecco and John went for the purple-corn beer. He seemed to enjoy it. For appetizers, we tried the potato and yucca balls coated in crispy quinoa and the shrimp spring rolls.

A recovering lawyer roaming the globe. Sunday, October 14, 2012. Thoughts on entering the twilight of my tour. Speaking of exploring, one of our foreign national coworkers took us through the temporary night market set up during Ramadan this year. This photo is tiny quail, fried crispy. Another popular item was handmade punch-like mixtures in dozens of flavors. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Thoughts on entering the twilight of my tour. Wanderings of a Cheerful Stoic.

A recovering lawyer roaming the globe. Saturday, July 21, 2012. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. Reading through some of my old posts this evening, I am remembering how I felt when I was on the outside looking in, and wanting so desperately to get "the call" and join the Foreign Service. There's just no arguing that it's a dream job, and it's even better than I thought it would be. If any of you out there are still "looking in," keep trying - it's worth it. July 22, 2012 at 8:30 AM.

A recovering lawyer roaming the globe. Tuesday, July 30, 2013. Moving on - home leave and training. I've been in training for a few weeks, and it's a nice interlude before the start of my next adventure. I will be in language training until December, and while there are small frustrations, I'm pleased to have the opportunity to learn Spanish. The best part? Hasta luego, y'all. Links to this post.
