Thanks so much for featuring me, Chris! Was a pleasure talking to you about pho, grandmas and green hair, all my favorite things xo

Oxtail pho goes super hard (my favorite combo, in addition to bones, is some mix of shanks/oxtail/short rib depending on what's available) - toss some tendons in there for even more collagen.

Had to feed my neighbors’ chickens periodically and hated them all. Birds don’t deserve our trust. (When’s the Heavies Pho Meet-up sponsored by Substack?)

Who needs a copywriter when you have the HEAVIES comments section?

I’ve had a fantasy for years of getting a custom neon sign for the window of my (very nondescript from the outside) acupuncture office that says “Eat Wet Food.” Lol. Some day.
