Manti
So… a long, long time ago, Mike and Emily went to visit some friends, where they had dinner with some of their friends, who are from Turkey. They taught us to make manti, a Turkish stuffed pasta. It was great! I’ve grown more adventurous with my tastes in food in the last few years and [...]

Emily is the Coupon Queen of the entire universe. I told her that I was going to do breakfast with a guy from church [...]

More birthday fun
Emily's parents, Wade and Sharon, came down to spend the weekend and the birthday fun continued. If I tell you the lineup of restaurants, it's pretty embarrassing, but we really did eat pretty much all weekend long…a good variety of lots of good food. (Hence my run today.) We also watched a ton of Olympics [...]

Weekend at the Westin
Emily's birthday is coming up on Tuesday (Aug 19) so I decided we should celebrate a bit early and head downtown for the night. I got a great rate on a room at the Westin through Hotwire (so far we are 2 for 2 on Hotwire) and surprised Emily with the plans.
We ate fabulous dinner [...]

Asado
So, it's been a while, eh? June 30th since our last post. Oh well…rather than a bunch of lame excuses and promises of more posts, I'm just gonna pretend nothing happened. (Tina, this is for you)
Tonight we hosted our International Dinner Club at our place and had an asado with 13 people. Emily is [...]

Parrilla
My how the time flies. Our last post was May 22nd. What have we been doing since then?
Building an Argentine style grill (parrilla) of course. Stop by for some meat if you're in the area!
