I’ve been working on a list of “30 Things To Do Before I’m 30″. It was the suggesting of a dear Dallas friend. (and this is in addition to the YOS)
I’ve listed some things that I’ve never done and some things that I want to do again. Also…I didn’t make it to 30. I quit [...]

If you know me and/or read my blog, you already know the answer to the question above. The most recent manifestation of the crazy is good though. I have decided that I want to try and stop eating so many processed foods.
Funny, right? Almost everything I eat is processed!
I started thinking about this a few [...]

Random thoughts from the weekend…
I cooked out last night…in the rain. It was actually kind of fun. I’m really glad that I bought a grill a few months ago and I’ve had a great time cooking on it. The best part is that when you grill EVERYTHING…you create very few dirty dishes! What a great [...]

In a few short days I will be making a crazy fast visit through Dallas. I’m actually going to Austin for a few days (for work) but I have a layover at DFW just long enough to see a few friends…I am so excited!
I have an irrational fear about this visit though…
I somehow feel that [...]

Have you heard the saying that your taste buds change every seven years? I’ve always been convinced that is a big load of bull…but I’m becoming a little bit of a believer.
I have always HATED milk. I rarely buy it and if I need it to cook I usually just buy a pint…and even that [...]

Here’s a little update on the “Davita is trying to cook more” campaign.
Last night I made fresh, homemade pico de gallo…with a bit of a twist. I added corn and diced avocado.
Tonight I sauteed shrimp in butter (yes, real butter), fresh garlic, and diced onion. I tossed it with whole wheat pasta and a little [...]

(Some might notice that the title of this blog is in reference to a video game…)
(And…SPELLCHECK is back!!!)
Okay…time for a true confession. : ) I’m trying to eat better.
And…I don’t just mean healthier, although that is certainly part of it! I mean BETTER. I have a tendency to way overcook when I have company. Elaborate [...]

I spent a few minutes this morning doing an “inventory” of my home for my new renter’s insurance policy. I have always carried renter’s insurance…b/c if there is a flood, fire, or something like that…I want to know that I’m prepared!
Almost any homeowner’s or renter’s insurance policy requires that you do an “inventory” of the [...]

Those that know me well know that I REALLY love Top Chef. (For those that don’t know…it’s a cooking reality TV show.)
Well…tonight’s premiere did not disappoint. I think this season will be great.
I have no idea why I love this show as much as I do. The things they cook are really intriguing to me. [...]

I’ve always been super entertained by those lists that people make…you know…100 random facts about themselves. Well…a friend of mine at work suggested that I do the same…she dared me to do this b/c I was joking about how I’ve become decidedly less interesting over the past few years. Here goes…
Okay…so I’m done. [...]
