Derby Girls

We checked out the Houston Roller Derby. The team from Austin that the movie Whip It was based on was there - complete with the original Babe Ruthless. It was defintiely a cultural experience.


Of course we had to have honorary roller derby names. Please meet Margaret Hatcher, Anne Grenade and Jessica take-em Downs.

Little Shop of Horrors

Burgers and musicals in the park.


Let's give TJ another try at that.

here's to trying new things

We've been eating at the Pizzeria Bel-Sit for the last 18 years. During that time, Michelle has only ever ordered one dish.

Until last week.

She traded Pizza Fru Fru for Carbonara - I don't think its going to happen again.

Afternoons spent in tea rooms in Rye, lunch at country pubs, brazilian food at St. Catherine's Dock, crepes at sidewalk cafes in St. Christopher's Place, french pastries from Pauls, sundaes in Leicester Square...

....I did do things other than eat while I was home last week, honest!
