Does anyone want to help Jack expand his empire into the U.S.?

I’m glad those mooncakes showed up on your screen – I have yet to see them on mine, nor the Deepavali picture I uploaded. Anyway, I don’t recall what flavor those cakes were, probably red bean (of course) and maybe pandan and raspberry combined. No mandarin ducks were harmed in the making of those mooncakes!

Pictures of coffee – I have to wait to drink it until I snap its picture? As if that’s going to happen! And as for Jack Yu, Ram’s dealer, only Ram has ever seen him, so we’ll have to wait until Ram orders another “shipment.” I only have Ram’s word for it that Jack exists, come to think of it. That and three of his business cards sticking to the fridge.

The words on the cakes said “Love Beans”, and “Love Birds” (well, “missing-each-other red beans” and Mandarin Duck, to be precise). Where did you get those cakes? They are hilarious!

Seriously, the Vietnamese coffees are always good, even in the restaurants in the Bay Area. You’ll be totally spoiled once you get used to them. They are the best example of fusion cuisine, and a fusion of two great cuisines, Asian and French.

I like the voice of your writing. You don’t sound ill at all — hopefully that means your ears are fully cured!
