Dallas

Well, I don't have anything terribly interesting to talk about, but I felt it was time to post something. I drove to Dallas all by myself on Thursday (you should note that this was my first trip to make out of town alone...this is indeed a weekend of firsts!). I have been spending a lot of time just hanging out with my sister, Sarah. We got all dressed up and girly to go out to eat with Charlie at Fogo de Chao - which was fun in itself. The food was sooooooo good. Better than I know how to say. And the Creme Brulee was....unbelievable. It was quite an experience. Then we went and had coffee at La Madeleine and talked. The next morning, we met up with our friend, Karin and a friend of Charlie's, Ramsey at a Lebanese place for breakfast. I have never before had the combined taste of cheese, sweet-cakey stuff, and rosewater syrup inside of pita bread - - but it was incredibly good along with the meat and cheese pies. I'm already feeling quite silly that a very large portion of what I have said thusfar has been about food. I suppose food is a big part of the enjoyment of life...since we do eat several times a day...and these were unique delights. I must say though, that all of these pleasures will be left in the dust of Julie's plane when it lands this evening at 7:26pm. I will have more to write later...hopefully of a more interesting nature. Until then...
