so, long week and a quick shopping trip (Z is the ‘mayor’ of West Elm) for an addition to my Urban Pantry necessitated dinner out at our favorite quick Chinese, Pei Wei.  My favorite is Mandarin Kung Pao sub broccoli for snap peas and carrots.  I get the combo for it’s half size serving and side of a spring roll with a giant glass of water, no ice. A quick run by Menchie’s (Z is also the ‘mayor’ of that) so he could get the magical color changing* Halloween spoon and we’re home.
