Puppy Love


Isaac, I just wanted to remind you that I want a puppy (preferably this one).

Restaurant Review: The sweet taste of Germany...?

Well those crazy Germans did it again... no, not invade Poland. Hoffbrau Steakhouse is just about the best sit-down eating joint I have ever been to. Maren and I ate the fried mushrooms. I am a huge fan of all of green Mother Earth's fungi, however these are my favorite. I ordered shrimp, which was absolutely worth every penny, but Maren's chicken made me a little jealous. The inside has a nice rustic feel, wooden tables, floors, and there was a waiter with a wooden leg. The booth we sat at was extremely comfortable and the glasses were HUGE. Oh also, I saw the giant-est steak covered in onion rings while I was there. As it passed me, sizzling in its' own juices, I wondered, "how long does that guy have to live."

P.S. I think "Hoffbrau" should mean "best dang steakhouse you'll ever going to eat at without having to wear a freaking tie."

It's Official!


I start my new position at Frost on August 27! I have been in need of a change for a while now, and I am so excited (and a little scared) now that it is here. I would never have done it without Isaac's incessant poking and prodding (or maybe this is called encouragement?).
