Chicken Pad Thai
This was rather involved for a Monday afternoon meal. Fortunately Chris
found an advanced copy of Monsters, Inc. to keep himself entertained whilst
Robin created this pleasure (the kids may have also been watching the
movie).

Ingredients
- 7 ounces rice noodles
- 5 cloves garlic
- 1 extra-large shallot
- 6 small chile peppers
- .25 cup peanuts
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar

We very nearly forgot two ingredients in this dish - the peanuts and the thai basil. The peanuts were obtained from Trader Joe's. We love that store. The basil was from our herb garden - it was remembered only on a whim as we were beginning to enjoy our meal.
