Vietnamese Cha Gio - First Attempt

 

R and I used to love to eat at Nam's Red Door in San Pedro. We miss the spring rolls so much I attempted to make them. They were tasty, they were edible, but I believe it will take many more attempts.

Reminders for my t(w)eens

- never whine. You are lucky, your life is a good one. Be thankful. 

- work comes before play. Do you chores, earn your time for playing.

-  your body is a tool you will need for your whole life. Treat it well.

- Have courage. Go the distance. Believe in yourself. 

- you have a sense of humor. Use it as often as possible. 

- If someone tells you "no", say "ok" unless it's something important, then battle, and never give up or surrender

- stay open minded, keep learning. No one knows everything. 

I scribbled these and put them on the fridge with a magnet.
