We celebrated a friend’s birthday out in SF earlier this week at Chez Spencer. Since I already went on my rant about how irritated I was, here are the happy points to this meal. Actually, the food wasn’t THAT great… the soup had fish bones in there but no seafood. BLeargh. Steak was delicious but […]

Lemme backtrack a bit. Last year, I took my parents up to Seattle for a quick weekend getaway to visit my 87 year old grandaunt that’s like a surrogate grandmother to me. When we flew in, I did a quick Yelp search and found Maneki. Ohhhh Maneki. They only took reservations and turned us away […]

I got a Chipotle salad for lunch today. Loaded up with lots of veggies and salsa… and steak! Ever since college I’ve rarely touched Chipotle, the only other time since 2005 was when they served us burritos for a company event. Not too shabby! The menu’s changed since the last time I was in. I […]

I heart Pixar. Of all of the movies they’ve made, my favorites are still Cars, Monsters Inc., and Wall-E. A few years ago for Christmas, Sam bought me two little Wall-E toys. It was also the same time I got my D300 and I had a lot of fun putting my Wall-E’s in funny poses. […]
