Count Down to... my Birthday 2012

It's almost my birthday annnnnnnnnnnnnnd it's storming! I was planning a statecation/staycation BUT it's storming. I don't like to go out in the rain and I've been out in the cold, pelting. flooding rain at least 3 days. The state is wet.  *sigh*  So I'm postponing my celebration until next weekend.

I want to get fly like a BOSS ;) and be out and about sans umbrella, coat and rainboots. I'll make it my Hunger Games B-day weekend! :)

I did manage to go out to dinner to a favorite restaurant of mine on Thursday evening with friends. Each year I decide how long I plan to celebrate and this year I decided 5 days would do.

Skates on the Bay is a lovely place literally on the bay.. built on stilts on the bay. On a sunny day it has one of the loveliest  bay views around.

A Month in Pictures: Day 6 - DINNER

Super busy today no time to eat all day! I was starving after I got off BART. I went straight to my Chinese spot and ate badly.  It was so good! LOL! Mandarin Spicy Chicken. YUM! Still drinking only water though!

A Self Professed Foodie Gets A Blog!

I went to K. Rock's food blog Food Stamp (check it out!) She has a post about a foodie meet up she went to in the ATL. It sounded so interesting to me, so I did a search for some meet ups in the Bay. I found a few BUT the one I was interested in required you have a food blog to join.

Uhhh guess who has a food blog now????? MEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee LOL!  It's was a walking blog I previously had that I never kept up with. I just changed the title and focus.

I linked it to my main blog. I now have 3 blogs! GEEZ! I KNOW!! However, I did want a place to talk about restaurants, share recipes and showcase food I cook.  Yes there will be pics! I'm so excited!!! 

There's not much there yet, just some stuff I brought over from this blog and a post about the cleanse I'm on. One of my goals for this year is trying new restaurants which include fine dining. I want to go to at least one upscale restaurant per month as well as other yummy eateries.

My blog is called ADVENTURE'S OF...a foodietarian. LOL! Check it out in the upper corner.

They specialize in this roasted garlic crab that is just amazing along with these fab garlic noodles everything is so Delish!!!! It is crab season and I will be eating here very soon.
