Oven Baked Chuck Steak
Fortunately this weekend is a light one. I’ll catch up on my favorite TV shows on Hulu, see a couple of new movies and put a little time into some projects around the house. A little later tonight I’ll go to my nephew’s first birthday party. Ok, he’s not really my nephew, but near enough. After watching ‘Underworld: Awakening’ this afternoon, which I recommend,...

'Nacho Regular' Cheesecake
When I moved to OKC I was fortunate to find several groups of friends very quickly. One group I spend time with loves to play volleyball but its way too cold now in January for bump, set, spike. Our favorite thing to do during the off season is eat (actually I think that’s our favorite all the time). Sometimes its a new restaurant, sometimes its an old favorite, but sometimes its a themed potluck...

"Born on a Blue Day" by Daniel Tammet
I had been stuck for awhile trying to decide what book to read next. I used a lifeline and asked friends on Facebook and Twitter what they would suggest. I was given several options to choose from, even one from Daniel Pink, but the book that sounded the most intriguing was “Born on a Blue Day” by Daniel Tammet suggested by my friend Erin. According to the book, which is written in...

Southwestern Pizza
Mom and I were not too hungry. We just wanted something light to eat and then put in a movie. It turned into one and a half bad picks. My friends and I in OKC like to have themed potluck dinners and I like to organize them. Our kickoff theme dinner was Asian cuisine. About 30 people showed up with various dishes including rice, sushi and chow mein. Our next theme in January is Tex-Mex and I...
