I've Been Tagged!

Thanks Erica! I never mind sharing some of my favs so here goes:


8 TV Shows I Watch: 8 is bacially all that I do watch. We haven't picked up any new shows in ages so nights can be a lot of flipping for us.


1. The Office - my most fav
2. ER - die hard fan since the beginning. I predict Ray and Neela will hook up by the end.
3. CSI - on Thursday night. I am sad to see Grissom leave but will hang around and see if I still like it.
4. American Idol
5. Nip/Tuck - OK, I know, this is something I should NOT admit to watching but I can't wait for new season to premiere early January
6. Friday Night Lights - can't wait for this to return early 2009 either
7. CSI: Miami - terrible show but I am caught up in the character's lives. I will not let Shane watch this with me as he has nothing but negative comments to say.
8. House Hunters on HGTV


8 Favorite Restaurants: This should be easy as I love good eats.


1. America's - the churrasco steak and au gratin potatoes are so good. And, I can never decide between the Tres Leches of Cheesecake for dessert.
2. Lupe Tortilla's - love the beef fajitas
3. Perry's - Yes, I have expensive taste. Try the chocolate truffle sauce with your steak, au gratin potatoes and fried asparagus - YUM!
4. Collina's - absolutely my favorite pizza in town
5. Goode Co. Barbeque - can't wait to try the new location off of 290
6. Bake Shoppe - of course. Shane and I eat there for lunch at least twice weekly. We keep them in business.
7. Olive Garden - absolutely my favorite salad and the chicken parmigiana with fettucini alfredo is awesome.
8. Peach Tree - unfortunately, the Peach Tree is in Boerne, TX but if you are ever there..GO!

2. For Jacob to seek God in everything he says and does
3. For Shane and I to grow old gracefully together

7. To return to work someday
8. Pure joy and happiness!!!
