I recreated the tilapia recipe from John & Glenna's rehearsal dinner in St. Louis. I changed up the spices just a bit (because I never make the exact same dish twice), and I liked the results.

Last night Charlie came over to hang out, and we discovered two very important things. First, the DVD player went kaput. I don't know what happened, but I do know it's been working within the past few weeks. We've got a power strip that we turn off when we're not home, so in theory it wasn't a lightning strike.

about me
Photographer by passion, techie by trade. I work in computer networking because it's easy and it pays the bills. Photography is where I find my happiness. I take my camera hiking, kayaking, or just wandering aimlessly.
I'm here to meet interesting people. Potential friends, potential models, fellow foodies... Anyone with personality & something to say.
I'm always looking for fellow kayakers, too. I have a tandem kayak, but it can be hard finding people who share my taste for adventure.

I just ate there again last night. The quality is always good, and I was surprised at how inexpensive dinner was - $40 for two people who ate entirely too much, including an edamame...

Great Chinese food for a good price. I believe the dinner buffet is $10, and the quality is what you'd expect from a good normal-service Chinese restaurant rather than an inexpensive bu...
