SomethingStore.com

Well, I discovered this store online. Its called the SomethingStore.com. Basically what it is you receive mysterious gift in the mail and it only costs $10 and you can pay by PayPal or Google Checkout. I chose PayPal. I received mine a couple of weeks ago and it was Jewelry and valued at $25. I am not a huge fan of Jewelry but is a nice piece of Jewelry. I am going to purchase another 'something' in the near future and I am hoping I will get something more exciting. : D

Movie Review - I AM LEGEND

Last night we had rented "I am Legend". Robert Neville, starring Will Smith plays Robert Neville, somewhat of a Scientist/Doctor who survives an airborne breakout of a virus and is the last man surviving on earth surrounded by infected vampire-like people who only come out at night and try to kill him. During his time alone he is in search of a cure to save the planet. Alone with his dog, he hunts for game to feed off of. He spends a lot time talking with his dog and mannequins.

I thought the movie was interesting and suspenseful. It reminded me of Resident Evil and other zombie-like movies. I think it was a good movie but I think Will Smith has played better roles. It also wasn't that long of a movie but I would definitely watch it again.

I GOT ANOTHER TATTOO!

On Saturday I went with my mom and sister, we decided to get another tattoo. I already had one with my daughter's name on the right side of my back. This time I decided to get one on my lower back. Let me tell you though, it hurt A LOT! I would like to get more later. But I do like it. :)

Food Review - Apollo Burger

Well, a few weeks ago we decided to go to Apollo Burger. With their Slogan "A Little Bit Different, A Whole Lot Better" I thought I might be trying a a little bit different kind of burger. :)

So, being new to the chain, I thought I would get their signature hamburger "Jr. Apollo Burger". Their hamburger had on it Pastrami, Cheese, Fry Sauce and Lettuce - AGAIN HOLD THE LETTUCE! It was also shredded lettuce, please no lettuce. Other than that the sandwich was delicious. I had experienced something similar at Dairy Keen, which had their "Train Burger" packed with all kinds of stuff.

But overall I thought they had a different flavor and it was good. :)

Food Review - Chilis Smokehouse Bacon Burger

I had an Opportunity to try the new Chilis Smokehouse Bacon Burger for Free, because I am a BzzAgent and I buzz on new Products, Services and Foods to get the word out and see the opinions of others on those items. As a food lover, I jumped on it! Chilis right now has three new style Smokehouse Bacon Burgers - Jalapeno, Southern and Three Cheese. I love spicy anything, so I tried the Jalapeno.

It was DELICIOUS! The only thing I request is that they HOLD THE LETTUCE! I am not a huge fan of lettuce ESPECIALLY Shredded Lettuce. The sandwich had "Extra thick-cut applewood smoked bacon topped with smoked cheddar cheese, crunchy tortilla strips, jalapeños, mayo, shredded lettuce, tomato and onion. Served with jalapeño-ranch dressing on the side.". I had removed most of the lettuce but I just could not finish the thing, it was so big. But it had a BIG taste to it. I am all about flavor. :D

Then for dessert we split the Chocolate Molten Cake. I love it. It is basically three layer chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream. I try to get it often when we go to Chilis. It is warm and gooey and the ice cream is cold and creamy. Makes a perfect combination. :D

5 STARS!

Food Review - Cafe Rio Mexican Grill

Well, we had been wanting to visit Cafe Rio for a while now, since we had heard how good it was.

On a Saturday of course, it was really crowded. The first thing I noticed while we were being pushed ahead in a 'cafeteria style' ordering line was that they had made their own flour tortillas. BTW, I did not like the ordering aspect at all, I felt rushed and unsure of what I was purchasing. I had ordered a grilled steak and chicken taco with pinto beans and rice. Also, every couple of minutes the staff cooking behind the glass would yell something out loud and I am still trying to figure out what that is. I also noticed the place had a lot of awards from various places hanging on their wall.

We finally got our food and was out.

When we got home and sat down to eat, I noticed that they had put a TON of lettuce on my tacos. Eh, I removed a lot of it but I am not a huge fan of lettuce - especially shredded lettuce.

I notice with a lot of these taco places that all the food has no flavor and all tastes the same. That is how it was for me. I did like the pinto beans though, they had a good flavor to them. My partner had got the cheesy enchiladas and they tasted the same to me.

Similar to my first review, Mexican food trying to escape being authentic.
