Away from Home

So today, I am away from home.  When I am out, I enjoy thinking about what to eat.  Tonight it was Carne Guisada.  Here's my little thought about this dinner.

Carne Guisada

Slow simmered beef, rich gravy

Good food with good friends!

We ate at the Red Onion Cafe in Houston.  I think I will still be full at breakfast.  I do have to mention that someone at our table ordered the Chocolate Empañada.  It was a toothsome mouthful. Honestly, one was all I ate!  Fried pie crust filled with chocolate and pecans.  Served with ice cream. That one bite was heavenly!

A Beginning

I was reading an article about Writing 2.0 and encouraging student writing production through blogging. While I've blogged for work, I often wondered what it would be like to blog for myself. Would it be good practice for moving into the technological age? Yes, it might.

The decision to blog being made, finding a suitable topic was the next step. I realized that I have something of a philosophy getting weeknight dinner to the table in a timely way.  I also think about eating good food and drinking good wine. Thus my new blog Dinner Thoughts.

I searched for a good theme and came upon this library backdrop.  I would have an entire library of cookbooks, if I had a place to store them.  Would I ever use them?  Who knows, but it is fun to think about collecting them.

So to food, to drink, to life, to write!
