Vietnamese Noodle Salad

Recently, I have been a big fan of dishes that let me use everything that I need to get rid if in the refrigerator.  This salad is a real fridge cleaner. Vermicelli noodles, lemon, fish sauce and anything else I happen to have. 

By the by, contrary to what one might think, it was incredibly difficult to get vermicelli in San Francisco.  I went to Chinatown to find them.  The problem was, I took ladypants.  A 20 minute errand turned into 3 hours of shopping.  Hmmmm, maybe it wasn't the vermicelli that was difficult.  Maybe it was something else.
