This past weekend we went to Boerne, Texas to attend the wedding of a good friend from our days at Baylor Law. The wedding was beautiful and we had such an incredible time with friends. I was more sore after a night of dancing in some hot 2 1/2 inch heels than I was after [...]
This weekend we traveled to Fort Worth to spend the weekend with some college friends. Texas A&M played Arkansas at the new Dallas Cowboys stadium, so they guys in our group went to the game on Saturday night. We brought our dog who enjoyed the company of Kolby and Candace’s baby, Samson.
While the boys were [...]
I saw this confection at Wal-Mart the other day, and I was intrigued. I was also impressed that Wal-Mart was selling something so trendy and chic… in the world of chocolate anyway. The bar is made by Chuao Chocolatier.
Online this bar goes for $6.00 a piece. I got mine at Wal-Mart for $4.00! Anyway, I [...]
I got Foodie Fight (please pronounce Fight as you would in Street Fighter) for Christmas last year from my sister. I’m not sure where she found it, but you can find it online. The best price I’ve seen is on Amazon. A new game is as low as $9.25 and the used ones are going [...]
Following a high scoring game of bowling this afternoon, Ben and I needed something for lunch before we passed out. Amarillo is not known for local restaurants that are open on Sundays and Mondays. I was not thrilled about the idea of getting something at McDonalds or Taco Bell, so we tried to eat at [...]
I like Cool Whip. I really like the light Cool Whip, but not the fat free. I like it on fresh fruit. I like it on top of ice cream. I like it on my finger. My sister puts it in her cottage cheese for breakfast…she’s crazy.
A recent jaunt through the frozen food aisle ended [...]
Groom’s Cake Ice Cream! Groom’s Cake is chocolate ice cream with chocolate cake pieces, chocolate coated strawberry hearts, swirled with strawberry sauce and chocolate icing. Most of the groom’s cakes I’ve seen at weddings are some combination of chocolate with strawberry, so the name fits the flavors here.
Blue Bell Ice Cream has been a staple [...]
My nephew turns ONE YEAR OLD today! Happy Birthday!
My sister had his birthday party this past weekend, and I was lucky enough to fly down for the big event. It was nice to see so much of my family that I hadn’t seen in a while. My nephew is too adorable for words. I [...]
After a successful work day, Ben and I decided to celebrate with a dinner out. There aren’t many options for “fine dining” here in Amarillo, but we’ve located a few of the better, locally owned restaurants. I feel a bit guilty about already having dined at 2 of the nicer establishments. Maybe we should have [...]
Ben and I went to Los Angles for Thanksgiving to be with his mom’s side of the family. On Thursday we ate some delicious traditional Thanksgiving fare. On Friday, instead of left-over turkey sandwiches, Ben’s uncle took us to Pizzeria Mozza to celebrate Ben’s law school graduation and birthday. Our reservations were made 2 months prior [...]
