Birthday Dinner at Corbin's

Second time eating at Corbin's in Layton. I enjoy this place. It's nice having a downtown SLC restaurant in a place like Layton.

Chicken Cordon Bleu

So yummy and so fattening.

Tonight was roast! A good homestyle meal. Our little place smelt so good I'm sure the neighbors were jealous. Yum...

My wife is such a wonderful cook! I even pealed the potatoes. Looks good, doesn't it?

Summer of food

Since Andrea is school free for the summer fresh new dinner recipes have been finding their way into my belly. She's been on a cooking streak. I'm try to convince her to let me video her cooking so I can blog her chef skills but I think it will still take a little longer to get that one approved.

Starting tonight I'm going to try and start at least taking a picture of the food. The only problem with a picture is it tells only a fraction of how good (or bad) the dish is. I guess we'll have to see.

San Diego

San Diego was great! I know know why my wife wants to move there. We road tripped the whole trip and really got to relax and enjoy ourselves on the 75 degree beaches. I even got a little bit of a sun burn.

Breakfast...yum

Repackaging the "Mart"

The Walmart in Riverdale is undergoing its repackaging to fit the new corporate image. You've probably seen the commercials on TV stating that you can still be happy and buy the things rich people do...Or something close to it produced in China and sold for a fraction of the price. BUT anyway that doesn't bother me as much as the actual physical remodel of the store.

We never shop at the Riverdale Walmart, because it isn't the closest, but we were in that part of town and it was late in the evening so we stopped in. Now any good, law abiding, normal minded, American knows that most Walmarts have the same general layout. You know that the soap is here, the toys there, and frozen pizzas on the other side. Well this night left the wife and I confused (mostly me).

Everything you can think of was out of place. There was flour next to the pharmacy and I think we counted six aisles of candy. (I think I notice unmentionables in the freezer aisle.) Even with that, the magic of food placement didn't stop there. As we came around the corner we noticed that all but one aisle sign was blank. Now we were in an unfamiliar Walmart layout and we had no map, signs, or magic lamp to guide us.

Luckily the wife is pretty smart and as I complained, took pictures, and pushed the cart she rounded up everything we had on the list except for Vodka sauce.(If you've never tried it I suggest you give it a shot...no pun intended) So the repacking of Walmart didn't kill us but next time I would like to at least see a sign begging us to "Pardon Their Dust".
