main street times two

friday morning we treated ourselves to some soft serve at the java cow down on main. i just really love ice cream.  later that night we all met up for some italian at cisero's.  

to be completely honest, there are only a few eateries i like on main street.  cafe terigo, ice cream at java cow, and obviously rocky mountain chocolate co.  however, our dinner at cisero's did not disappoint. oh wait, i also enjoyed blue iguana this week too.  i just really love trying new places and food tasting.

tt and i both liked our meals.  i had spaghetti with meat sauce, and tt tried the fettucini florentine.  we also had a lot of the appetizers, all of which were very tasty.  i especially enjoyed the artichoke dip.  after dinner,  we had a nice stroll down main street.  the weather right now is ideal.  it definitely feels like fall!

Dinnertime

It scares me that I seem to be taking more and more pictures of food, and less and less pictures of everything else.  Am I obsessed?  Am I remembering how much I really love to cook?  Is it that I have been able to take advantage of the natural light and take some pictures the last few days?  Maybe I just love food!  Tonight, TT and I made dinner together.  He got the noodles ready and grilled the chicken, while I prepared the special sauce/dressing and put the other groceries away.  I hate putting the groceries away!  If it were up to me, they'd probably get left on the counter the majority of the time.  

I found this delicious recipe for Sesame Noodles here (thank you Pioneer Woman).  The noodles were delicious, but to be completely honest with myself, I'd have to say they were not quite as flavorful as I'd hoped they'd be. But overall, this was a very good meal.

 

The chopsticks came from our last round of Chinese take-out.  But don't let the picture fool you - we promptly pulled out the forks to enjoy our dinner.  

Dessert is always a must for FHE in our little family, so after dinner we jumped in the car and went for some frozen yogurt with TT's parents.  Monday nights don't get much better!

lunch downtown

Today TT came down and picked me up for lunch.  We ate outside across the street from the temple at BlueLemon.  I've eaten there with a few different people, and everyone always seems to like it there.  Today we ate outside because the weather was perfect, and so was the view. 

He got the Turkey Sandwich, and I got the Turkey Burger.  Both were delicious!  I always feel so lucky each time TT, my mom, dad, sister and her girlies come down and share their lunch time with me.  I love it!!

Vegas + Giveaway Winner

TT and I had a little getaway to Vegas this weekend.  It was so nice.  What do you do when you go to Vegas and you don't go to night clubs, you don't drink, you don't smoke, and you don't gamble?  You shop.  And then you eat.  And then you eat some more.  And then you keep eating.  For examples, see below...

The Sugar Factory

New York New York Pizza

On our way to Jerry Seinfeld...we have never laughed soo hard. EVER.

Johnny Rockets - famous for burgers and shakes

 

Hash House A GoGo - The Chef's Favorite - Chicken Fried Waffles.  Don't knock it till you try it!!

 And my personal favorite - a coke slurpee from Coke World.  We got one everyday.

So we ate a lot of food... it was a good time.  We walked a lot,

and I tried to convince TT it is important for him to have and wear sunglasses, but he wouldn't listen.  I absolutely loved the drive down and back. 

Now for our giveaway winner...

Disney March 2011 wrap up

We love every minute of Disneyland.  Even though the majority of us are twenty something year olds and older clearly we love it.  I say it's just as fun when you are older as it is when you're a little one.  Disney for life!

Chopped.

Cut my hair over the weekend.  9 inches people!  And I absolutely LOVE it!  I've never had short hair. Ever.  It's such a fun change, and perfect for summer time! Thanks to TT for being supportive of it, although he wasn't to excited about it originally.

We've had a wonderful weekend watching conference, going to the movies TWICE, running some errands, playing basketball for 3 hours (TT), getting a hair cut (me), having girls night and baking, eating at the one and only Crown Burger (TT and brothers), analyzing the movies we saw, and taking naps!

Weekend Recap

 We went skiing this weekend. Yay!  I feel like we've been trying to go all season long, but it kept not working out for various reasons.  Anyway, we had a fabulous time, TT proved he is a true athlete, and I was warm the entire time.  A skiing miracle!  After skiing, we ran home to play with Crew, and met my family at Bonsai for a tasty meal.  Salmon. Yum.  We definitely had some good food this weekend.

I've got so much blog catching up to do.  Stay tuned for some new and fresh outfit posts (including a romper!!), and more!  I've acquired some new and pretty clothes lately, now if I can just take some pictures!

Happy January!!

It's the Holiday Season...

We are sending out a Christmas card this year. Even though we are kid-less, hope that's not too strange. Christine Olson is an amazing Utah photographer, who took our pictures a few weekends ago.  I still haven't decided which one I'll be sending out, because there are so many I'm in love with.  Anyway, I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving, and let the holiday festivities begin!
