Good morning! If anyone is looking forward to a good summer read, his book will be released today, so who's getting a copy?! 🙋🏻‍♀️ I know I am!



Reposted from Anthony Veasna So was a rising star in the literary world. But on December 8th, 2020, Anthony died of a drug overdose. It’s a bittersweet irony that he is now enjoying a literary debut he could have only dreamed of. His death changed the narrative, but not the goal—instead perhaps adding to the specter of other young, brilliant artists who passed too soon. While handling his estate, his tombstone, and the matter of his unfinished second book in his contract, tension has grown among those who knew him best (or at least thought they did.) Tap the link in bio for our cover story on the late “literary superstar,” written by . ‘Afterparties,’ his highly anticipated debut book, will be released on August 3.

🚨ATTENTION Legacies Family!🚨

We are ramping up our push to pass a HISTORIC BILL [Legacies of War Recognition and Unexploded Ordnance Removal Act] that we have been partnering with Senator Tammy Baldwin's office on. We are currently working to earn Senator Marco Rubio's support of the bill - in order to be successful, we need help from the Florida community.

Read more about the bill through the link in our bio and if you (or your organization!) live in Florida, please consider filling out the form to endorse the bill by next Friday, March 19th.

If you do not live in Florida, please share with anyone you know who does! Let’s show Senator Rubio that the Florida community wants him to Co-Sponsor and Co-Lead this important effort!

Take action and show your support of this bill to help remove bombs from Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam!

Please SHARE this post and invite friends and family located in Florida to join you.

Together, we can get the job done!

Here in New England, we know how unpredictable the weather can be but this past Friday's beautiful warm weather couldn't be more perfect for us to distribute 1200 boxes of food to families in need.

To see a smile on everyone's faces, a heartfelt gratitude, and to have received an unexpected blessing from the Buddhist monk was such a humbling & rewarding experience for all that were involved.

We just wanted to say thank you again to all the volunteers, every organizers, Peter from , Loung Phila (Wat Lao Xokexayyaram) and to our lovely ladies for your warm hospitality and bowl of pho!

We look forward to bringing & connecting all the communities together for many more events in the near future!

Thank you for my special wedding anniversary pandan cake! It has been perfected with the right amount of combo; light, sweet, and aromatic that won't leave you feeling guilty after devouring a slice (or two)! Normally, it takes 1 week to finish any cake in my house, this cake didn't make it the next day! So, if you're looking to try something different be sure to follow their page, you definitely won't be disappointed! 🍰
