Eat & Drink

My latest obsession is to find great food, a great glass of wine...and if I can find them at a great price, even better! Denver has some pretty fab hangouts that serve small plate portions off their regular menu during happy hour. Enjoy!

Misc.

I have always enjoyed and appreciated reviews by real people eating at real restaurants. Its my assumption that everyone loves good food. Last night, I didn't feel like cooking. Had all the stuff, just not the inclination. So, once again, found myself eating out. Check out what I ordered. You may just want to try it sometime....or not!

Over the course of our adult lives, we encounter a series of what we know as life events, or shall we say, opportunities to buy new shoes. Not all stress was created equal!

Denver has finally realized the demand for outdoor patio dining. It is really trying to be the grown-up city it could be.

I love wine...i love wine country. I really love the lack of pretense (so *not* LA) in the wine country of Santa Barbara. Magical!

With the price of gas going through the roof, alternative transportation is something to think about. (shoulda been thinking about this long before now btw). My scooter takes $3.00 to fill up (probably $3.50 this week). I go for MILES (90 mpg) before hitting empty. Check out these places to get your scooter, and stuff for your scooter.

Maybe its not Broadway, or Off-Broadway, or even Off-Off Broadway...but, Denver hosts some pretty good theatre to get your fix when you can't be in New York. Check out what's playing at these local theatres.

Tea is the new coffee. Don't get me wrong...i'm not about to abandon caffeine intake via my daily grind, cuppa joe, black gold...but, tea is making a place for itself in the social drinking scene.

Sometimes, the concession food is as much of the game experience as the game itself...but it doesn't always have to be! Check out these Denver restaurants.

Urban Zen Loft...the zenescape.

Before you can zenescape...you sometimes have to improvise! Renovating is a bit like childbirth...you experience the first labor and say "never doing THAT again"...and then you forget, and do it again...Same goes for renovations! Choosing a contractor, tile, faucets, toilets...does the handle on the oven match the handle on the fridge, does the toilet flusher handle thingy come with the toilet, or do I have to pick that too! I forgot. These are the not-so-zen yamas to master before sinking...
