A healthy dose of pet shaming

The latest craze seems to be shaming one's pets. Seriously, just google "pet shaming." The results are pretty hilarious.

Cactus Jack's bad behavior is a constant topic around my house. We've decided he just doesn't care anymore. He's 11 years old and does what he wants. He's fighting against the man (the man being me I guess). It probably doesn't help that I treat him like my baby.

Time for the world to know just how bad he is...

Just because I need a little Beckham today...

I didn't want everyone to think that I had stopped being obsessed in love with Beckham.  So here is a picture for all you people that were worried about it.  It just makes my day better.

When I feel like and have time to write again, expect exciting posts on my upcoming birthday bash and the return of the State Fair Chile Cook-off.  Riveting stuff, people!

Restaurant Week is here!!! Yea!!!

I love a good excuse to go to a fancy restaurant.  KRLD Restaurant Week is the best reason to get your butt out of the house and plan a date night with your husband, boyfriend or best friend.  What is it?  Over 125 restaurants have a three-course dinner for just $35 per person.  And these are really fabulous spots such as Capital Grille, Eddie V's and Del Frisco's. The participating restaurants will make a $7 donation to the North Texas Food Bank or Lena Pope Home for every prix fix dinner purchased.  Dining out for a good cause.  I love it.

Technically, Restaurant Week begins on Monday, August 13th, and runs through Sunday August, 19th, However; Lots of restaurants are giving a preview starting this weekend.  Here's my dining list for the week:

• Stephan Pyles
• Five Sixty by Wolfgang Puck
• Pappas Bros. Steakhouse (of course my favorite)
• Mi Piaci
• Possibly The Mercury (I've been wanting to try this place for a while now because its close to my house)

Where are you going for Restaurant Week?  Haven't decided yet?  HURRY!  A lot of places are booked already but you can still make your reservations HERE.
