Thanks To Everyone . . .
Thanks to everyone for all the kind words and congratulations on our 52nd Anniversary. We really appreciate it.
We headed up to Katy about 10am to meet up with Brandi, Lowell, and Master Landon to celebrate Brand’s much delayed Birthday get-together. She’s been traveling so much recently that it’s sometime hard to match our schedules up.
We had planned to have brunch at the nearby Black Walnut Café but when we got there we found a line out the door, so we moved on. And ended up at a nearby Mexican place, El Asador. Which turned out to be really, really good.
They had eaten right after they closed on their new house last year, but hadn’t made it back since.
Jan had the Beef Taco Salad with Queso, unusual in that it wasn’t in a taco shell, and it used a Spring Mix salad mix , but it was delicious.
I had the same salad, but the Beef Fajita version, but with Ranch along with the Queso.
Really, really good.
And so was getting together with everyone.
This evening we got to check out two more of the new TV shows.
Carol’s Second Act is the latest from Patricia Heaton of Everyone Loves Raymond and The Middle fame. She plays a woman who retired after teaching for many years, and then decides t o become a doctor. The show starts with her first day as a new resident, with this pilot episode spent largely establishing the many characters.
A slow start, but it has a lot of potential.
We really liked the other one, The Unicorn, starring Walter Goggins of Justified and The Shield fame. He plays a widower with two young daughters who’s wife died from cancer a year ago.
His friends are now trying to get him back in the dating world. And he’s a hot commodity, known as that rarest of rare animals, a Unicorn, because of his widower status. And when his family talks him into signing up on a dating app, he’s overwhelmed handling his new popularity, as well trying to stay on top of his daughters growing up too fast.
A great show. Check out both of them.
After a long wait today, Nick Russell’s latest book in his John Lee Quarrels series, Dead Romeos finally showed up on Amazon.
Check it out.
