for several reasons, the fact that the younger kiddo still hasn't been introduced to peanuts and that the husband and i never eat sans kids being chief among them, i've had an intermittent craving for pad thai for about a year now.
but with the help of an elaborate car-picnic for the kids, an evening pick-up of my sister, and a white castle-eque re-routing, last night found my sister, my lovely daughter, and me sacked out on the living room floor with a john hughes flick, three sets of chopsticks and one large styrofoam container of spicy tofu and noodles.
