If anyone can get me a couple of bowls of instant Pho, please hook a brotha up (I'll take a hot pot if you got one to spare, too). I'm getting tired of the same DFAC vittles they're feeding us. Don't get me wrong...the DFAC feeds us well and plentiful, but its the same thing every week. I'm getting tired of the rubbery crab legs and steak on surf n turf Sunday. Tired of the collards and fried chicken on soul food Wednesday. Tired of the many days of chinese beef and soggy veggies. Tired of the mini pizzas and sandwich bar every day for lunch (especially since I don't eat the bread they bring in for us...straight off the shelves of Kroger's I would say). And if you're one of the few other readers with a soldier here, hook him/her up with some good snacks (don't forget candy so they can hand it out to the kids here...um, no chocolate...doesn't fare well in 120 degree heat). All the DFAC has here for snacks are honey buns, cake muffins, beef jerky and pop tarts (there are a few other options, but they're all straight sugar). Don't get me started on the drink options.
Quite frankly, I look forward to the lunches out at the local Sheik's house...they always have interesting dishes such as lamb or beef kabobs, baked chicken, homemade bread, dolma (if you like Greek, you've had dolma) and lots of rice (perfect for this Chinaman).

My brotha!! I have a case of Pho bowls AND a hot pot for ya!! Now you understand what i meant when I said I got sick of Prime Rib and Crab Legs every Sunday!! It's not bad, but it gets old fast. Care packages coming your way soon!!! Share the wealth. Give away whatever you can't eat.
