We've got a fine dining restaurant near here that Toby and I like to go to for special occasions* called Bonnell's Fine Texas Dining. What's even more awesome is that not only has Jon Bonnell written a cookbook, but if you want to know one of his recipes, you can go to the website and ask, and they'll email it to you.

I made the Roasted Tomato and Jalapeno Soup yesterday... Expandcut for recipe, plus a ressuring note for the spicy/hot-averse )

Oh, I also had Kraft mac & cheese for lunch along with it, because I had leftovers. :D (It's a comfort food - and it HAS to be The Yellow Stuff.)

* Okay, we've celebrated "it's Thursday" and "we need to use up the Groupon" at times.

If you haven't tried kiva.org -- it's a micro-lending thing -- you can get a chance to make a $25 loan to someone in the developing world for free for a short time: http://kiva.org/invitedby/stephanie2960

(I get a t-shirt if 5 of you take up the offer, but I don't push Kiva for the swag, I push it because it's a pretty awesome service.)

Limited quantities available - let me know if it stops working. :)

So...

Nearby school, if your sign boasts that your students perform at twice the level of their peers...can you really call them their peers?
