August 11, 2010 blog meet-up

I’ve had many blogger meet-ups before. But I’ve never once had a blogger meet-up with my family. Yesterday afternoon was a first for me, and it wasn’t as awkward as I thought it would be. In fact, it was quite marvelous. You know I love my daddy and mommy. I may be 22 years old, [...]

NYC 3: No Dessert For You!

August 6, 2010 blog meet-up

There are a few things that bothers me about certain restaurants: 1) Bad lighting: So I suppose everyone looks a bit sexier in the dark and nobody can see the blackheads on your nose, but what about the food? Isn’t the point of going to a restaurant all about the food? How can I make [...]
