Fish. Before and After.

Hubs and I both love seafood; probably a little bit too much. More often than not, we get cravings for a yummy whole steamed live fish.

Cookbooks!

Borders is sadly going out of business. Earlier this week, Hubs and I biked over to our neighborhood Borders to check out the barren shelves to pick through the leftovers of their sale.

We woke up at the wonderful hour of 12PM and made our way out of the hotel… Hopped on the subway and wandered off in search of The Met. It’s the first museum where I’ve been to where you pay what you think is fair for the admission fee. You get a little metal button […]

Happy Birthday Hubs!

I’m a little behind on this… but due to the amazingness of WordPress, I can backdate it! Happy Birthday Hubs! (And happy 8 months of being hitched. 8 months down. Forever left to go!) We celebrated with a nice gathering of friends at the local Thai restaurant and we followed it up with another dinner […]
