Hoping you never have to return to Houston for the same reason, but glad you were able to find some good places for food at least.  Montrose area is great - I’m currently living in the Heights and simply love being able to live in a neighborhood where I’m in walking distance from all my fav…

Great article. As someone living in Houston (but not Texas native!), it’s been interesting experiencing both “TexMex” and more traditionally “Mexican” foods. Both delicious, but there are significant differences(which I’m still learning!).   Majority of Mexican restaurants serve TexMex foods because...that’s what’s…

I have never used metal chopsticks before. Colour me intrigued!!

It is really hard to know what to think of this show. As a pretty big WoT (books) fan, I’ve realized while watching that all my favourite moments are the moments that remind me of the books. I smiled so much at meeting Loial. He does look a little off, but his character is absolutely perfect and I was so happy when I…

Apart from the shoddy effects...just came to say you will absolutely find downpours like this in major cities. Houston says hi.

Full disclaimer - have not seen show.

Great article. Even though now I’m slightly concerned to find out I like sparkling beverages because I like pain...

So I finally made this and the recipe definitely worked! I just made a slight mistake with the beer I chose. I pretty much only drink dark beer so figured I didn’t need to buy any at store since I have stuff in the fridge.

Hah, I feel validated now. Not played much GTA (only part of San Andreas!) so I don’t know most of these missions. But one summer when I was interning in a city I didn’t know anyone, decided to pick up the newest GTA game (San Andreas at the time). Greatly enjoyed it, as a matter of fact. But...which mission did I get…

I continually am reminded that I’m in the minority of HP fans in that I seem to like all the movies that are usually considered the “worst” ones and I don’t care for the “good” and “gritty” ones. I haven’t thought about this for a while, but if I was forced to rank the HP movies now (again, none of them are amazing,…

Oh wow. Thanks much, definitely went down the rabbit hole and read both of those articles. Very enlightening and (not a little) scary. I am now much more informed about the power of Book Twitter and GR review bombing...

Question since I’m curious now. I don’t know much about RT, but I am a very active user on GoodReads and greatly enjoy the experience. I haven’t noticed “review bombing” but it’s very possible I’ve just missed it since I don’t read popular enough books. Do you have any articles/sources for this, or just something you…

This looks delicious and way easy (for someone that loathes baking).  I must make this.

Giving this one a try!!  I too love dark beers so much, but every non-alcoholic version of a stout I’ve tried just tastes flat.  Hoping this one is finally the one that works for me.

You’re not. I read that and was like “....eh?”

Came for the snarky Subway comments, was not disappointed.

“No. The answer is no.” =D Thanks for the laugh. This article was highly enjoyable and I definitely agreed with your conclusion paragraphs! For myself, I have no desire to own any of these gadgets but reading your adventures with them is somehow very satisfying.

Not a big soup person, but there is one soup I regularly keep on hand, so I suppose it’s my favourite.  Let me join the crowd and say Campbell’s Tomato soup.  And yes of course with milk!!  Of late when I have it though, I really use it just as a dip.  Make a couple grilled cheese sandwiches and a can of tomato soup. …

I had no idea about this change - so thanks for the heads-up!  Definitely got caught off a few weeks back when I was trying to buy some beer/wine and it was only 1145 on Sunday.  Had to go back and wander the store for another 15 minutes before buying.  Appreciate the PSA

As someone who prefers Pizza Hut above any other chain pizza, I don’t understand how anyone can justify paying menu prices for their pizza. I can only justify it by taking advantage of whatever their current deal is (bringing their pizza down to “normal” pricing). Their menu pricing is simply outrageous.
