We had a lunch in a near-by Thai restaurant as a celebration of Monica's recent promotion.

Celebration Lunch for Monica's Promotion

As shown in the photo, more then 10 dishes were ordered. It was a hot noon, mostly because of the approaching typhoon Haitang. However, spicy Thai food helped to stimulate our appetite.
Monica has been working in the company since the very first day it is funded. Her employee identification number shows that she is among the first 50 employees the company ever hired. I am amazed at her perseverance or should I say royalty?
