Today's random thoughts

  • Almost started the Steak Tour today but instead ate a Bacon Cheeseburger at Mesa Ranch Grill (one of my favorite steak places). The burger was very good. Toasted bun. Crisp bacon. Crispy outside. The ice tea was fabulous. The fries were so-so. The cactus-shaped cornbread awesome. Service very good. Live Music - Country Guy that did a mix of covers and originals - quite good. Hard to admit but I did know all the covers. Other diners were older, Texas-type. Its a fun little semi-hole in the wall place.
  • Lily (27 months) bowled a 105 in Wii Bowling today against Dad. She'll hit the Pro circuit by 5. :0)
  • Left my oven on all day accidentally. Was curing some glue on some jewelry. Usually I do 200 degrees for 2 hours or so and then let it sit 24 hours. Today ended up 350 degrees for 12 hours. Opps. Was a little smokey in the kitchen.
  • Fun so many people are pregnant. Congrats to Amy and Nick!
  • I am hoping to hit the glass studio tomorrow night for a little glass fun. I feel like making something pink. I know Heidi wants me to do some purple pieces. :0)
  • Before I start the Steak Tour I should probably try out a few more burger places. Wally's maybe? I know this is crazy but I don't think I like Dublin DP anymore.
  • I don't think I'll be buying a food processor anytime soon but Karina's video on making a burger grinding your own meat was cool. Ok, it wasn't HER video but she posted it.
  • Saw this video today off a blog post for Trade as One. I get overwhelmed by how infiltrated our lives are with slave-made products. I know I can't do a lot by myself but I can do something. Even little things add up. Also here's a good post from Justin Dillon on 5 THINGS I HAVE LEARNED ABOUT ACTIVISM

    You don't like Dublin DP anymore!? Sacrilege! Where's Wally's?

    Dublin is really syrupy and has a funny aftertaste. I do still have it sometimes but I've started doing the cola with pure cane sugar instead or even rootbeer.

    Wally's is on Mesa near Mesa Ranch Grill - looks like a fast food place. Also need to try Moody's at 183 and Anderson Mill.

    The Steak Tour may or may not include Ruth Chris. It will atleast include Fogo De Cho, Saltgrass, TL&C, Mesa Ranch, and a couple others I've forgotten the names. III Forks maybe? Hudson's on the Bend? Need to read a little more.

    Urs. The Steak Tour is slightly random but not really. A good steak is a taste of heaven and I am trying to get closer to Jesus. This seems like a practical way. :0)
