I really thought Vicci was going to win The Voice, but I loved all four of them so much I would have been happy with any of them.
Reading Ben Does Life makes me want to start running, but then I remember that I really hate running.
For those who are on the Greek yogurt fence: normally I buy Oikos, but this week my mom bought Fage, and it is much milder. I kind of miss the tanginess, but it might work for some who haven't decided if they like it or not.
My AW: I'm feeling much better from my cold, and today is the 6 year anniversary of the day Courts and I met! We're going to spend the evening in Denton, have dinner then maybe hang out on the square.
Evidently them. I already jokingly said "if you're sick you better stay far away from here!" and she just said "well we will try to keep our germs contained when we are there haha"

He has that effect on people. I am such a fan-girl it's gross.
I have eaten all brands of greek yogurt trying to find the best one and I do like Fage too. It's just so expensive. I eat the Dannon Greek most just because it is cheaper.
Yay for met-aversary!
Tonight is our date night and I get to choose the restaurant. I have chosen Esparza's in Grapevine. We have never been. Anyone have any thoughts on this place?
Hee, today is our 5 year anniversary of our first date! Saturday we are going to Pappas Bros. and spending the night at the Omni in Las Colinas and then we are on vacation!
With All the Trimmings
Just do it!
Someone would be getting a Lysol spray down before they came into our house.
The margaritas are AWESOME! The salsa is probably my favorite and I haven't had a bad thing to eat there yet. Did I mention the margaritas?
I've been once... It was pretty good. It's been a long time (like 18 months) so I don't remember much, but I know we enjoyed it.
Funny thing about Esparza's... we were meeting some couple-friends there that night (we're in Dallas, they're in FW). I was so frustrated because DH got home late, so we were late meeting them... well come to find out MONTHS later, he was late not because of work, but because he'd actually been with my girlfriend of that couple, buying my engagement ring. They met up, picked out and bought the ring, and then he ran home to meet me and she ran to pick up her boyfriend to meet for dinner. They all knew what was going on, but I had no idea. It was 2 months before he proposed, and even then I didn't find out for a few more months!
Um, Anna and Stephie... this is weird. Today is the 7 year anniversary of the first time Andrew and I met!

*Cue fast auctioneer voice* 8 years, 8 years, do we have any 8 year met-aversaries in the house? Gimme 8 years, come on, 8 years...
Whoa! I knew about Stephie, but that's kinda crazy! June 30th must be an especially lucky day!
Ha, I know. I wasn't trying to one up anyone! I think that's way weird though!
Bio
LOL! Well, I actually met Ben in November of 2005. But it took awhile before I agreed to go out with him!
With All the Trimmings
Just do it!
Yay! Welcome to TN! Good luck.

Good Luck!!

Not sure who else thinks he's hot or cares but TMZ and FoxNews reported that Jonathan Rhys Meyers tried to kill himself. What is it with all the actors trying to kill themselves? So sad!

No problem! My mom has been looking around and can't seem to find it. I left a message with the editor just to find out where they sell it but haven't heard back yet. If you find it will you let me know?
Bio Good Times
Of course! And keep me posted too!
Just checking in with everyone. I am still VERY slammed at work and I have a feeling it will be like this until August 31st.
Good luck Renee! I hope they decide not to go so yall can enjoy your visit.
Summer, keep the hand sanitizer readily available at all times! Inconsiderate people drive me batty!
Happy anniversary to Anna, Stephie, and Brianna!! That is kinda crazy!!
I hope everyone has a great day.
Lacey that is awesome on the running!
Summer that stinks and I get if its unavoidable but to just impose your sickness on others when its not necessary is inconsiderate.
I just got reminded that we are going to sweet tomatos for lunch today and I have never been. I am super excited because I see beets on their website and I LOVE beets! I need a good lunch to fuel me through a 4 hour meeting this afternoon.
Compared to all yours, mine is silly ... but we're celebrating our two-monthiversary tonight.
We've never had a real anniversary to celebrate before, since we met at some random point when we were coworkers... and we went out (as friends) for months before we suddenly just realized we were already completely in love with each other. We don't remember when we first met, nor did we really have a "first date." So we've gone a little crazy having an occasion to celebrate now.
We'll probably do it this month and maybe next month, then I'm sure the novelty will wear off. But it's fun for now!
I just got a call back and they are going to mail me some copies. Here's the number - 214-880-0003

Thanks for the advice on Esparza's. I am very excited for some good Mexican food. One question if anyone knows...appears from the website that it has lots of outdoor seating (which I am out on in 100 degree temps). Is there a fair amount of indoor seating, too?
BL- I thought about you the other day when you mentioned beets. My g-pa-in-law LOVES pickled beets. He makes his own,"jars" them with his own special lables and passes them out at family functions. I always pass on them!
DH and I were supposed to go eat there when we were looking for rings 3 years ago and we didn't get to and I completely forgot about it until yesterday. Thanks to Tiffany's post and yours, it is now on my must do list.
Have fun. Thursday nights is Concert on the Square, right? We went once, a very long time ago.
Yes, if I remember right, there was quite a bit of seating inside too. It was divided up into smallish rooms, but there were several. Have fun!
