Better than crack

Sweet Tomatoes is celebrating Mardi Gras throughout February. Their "Spicy Cajun Shells Pasta Salad" is good, but the "French Quarter Praline Muffins" are incredible. Nom nom nom.

Happy VD

Grammy gold

From CNN:
Vince Gill's "These Days" won best country album, an award presented to him by Ringo Starr.
"I just had an award given to me by a Beatle," Gill said with wonder, and then looked at West -- who's often been vocal at a perceived lack of mainstream industry acceptance -- in the audience. "Have you had that happen yet, Kanye?"

Let's all say it together....OH SNAP.

Road trip

This might be the best free game on the Interwebs EVER.
If you're like me, and spent way too much time playing Oregon Trail in your youth, you will love Thule Trail.
I drove the hybrid sedan, with Steve, the DivaGeek, Hez, and the LMGC along for the ride. We made it to the music festival on time - early in fact. Nothing happened to Steve or to me on the trip. I can't say the same for Hez, the DivaGeek, or the LMGC.
Screencaps from last night:






P.S. It totally rocks that the CD on top of the stack is Duran Duran's Rio.



And, I shot some tacos when I went hunting for food!!
