MyParty. Finds. A Home.

I had a pantry still full of baking ingredients a few days before we were scheduled to move out. The solution, to try to use as many of those ingredients as I could so I wouldn’t have to throw away a lot of things. Which is why my daughter and I eventually came up with [...]

Look at what hubby and I passed just a block away from our apartment that we were currently vacating because we were moving to another city/country… Whaaat? Just when we were moving out, In-N-Out was coming into Frisco, Texas! In-N-Out has never expanded beyond the west, but now, they have apparently specifically created a meat [...]

When my family gets a craving for yummy chicken wings, our go-to place is Buffalo Wild Wings, which is also conveniently located a block away from our house. Had my husband and I wanted part-time local jobs, we’d gladly apply here. My husband loves the huge flat screen TVs, and my daughter totally enjoys their [...]

I was in the mood for some big burgers the other day but instead ended up having a giant club sandwich from Jimmy John’s Gourmet Sandwiches, which was just two blocks away from our house. I had #11 on the menu, the Country Club, which is made up of fresh sliced turkey breast, applewood smoked ham, provolone, [...]

Initially, instead of slaving away in the kitchen, and depending on the water filter supplier for our thanksgiving drinks, my family and I contemplated on going out for Thanksgiving. We initially decided on going with a couple of friends to the Thanksgiving buffet at the Great Wolf resort in Grapevine, TX. A few days before, [...]

For newly transplanted people, we sure do have lots of friends – and that’s good, of course! So, for thanksgiving, we got invited to two feasts. Our second one was hosted by one of my husband’s colleagues from way back. He and hubby have always kept in touch, and whenever any one was in the [...]

We were in the mood for seafood last weekend and, having exhausted our repertoire of local diners that we wanted to share with our weekend guests, we decided to try something new. We drove to The Shops at Legacy and chose to have lunch at Half Shells, its a cozy little seafood grill that offers [...]

Last weekend was a great one. After all the Thanksgiving festivities, my daughter’s birthday celebration, and basically all that frantic Black Friday shopping, having a nice leisurely weekend with good friends visiting from Austin was definitely a welcome break. To cap off our weekend, we had the most sumptuous desserts at Main Street Bakery at [...]

I was in the mood for some hot pho and didn’t really have a hard time convincing my husband and daughter to indulge me. We ended up at the relatively new V Bistro about two miles from our house, which is a fairly modernized vietnamese restaurant. It was a good sign when we saw lots [...]

One time, my family and I were craving for something crunchy. And then we came across Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers. We drove up to the window and ordered 12 pieces and their famous Cane Sauce. Yummy. How cute is their kiddie meal lunch bag? This pretty yellow lab is Raising Cane. The restaurant is actually [...]
