Rockin' and Rollin'

We just can't get enough of our favorite roller rink, Playland Skate Center! And with their newly resurfaced skating rink, the place is even better than ever. We had our usual: several gummy hamburgers and then commenced skating. Inspired by the speed skaters from the Texas Speed Club on the rink, we skated faster than ever before and even practiced skating backwards. We got skills! Domonic didn't fall down even once, although I fell twice. Ouch!

Merci de cette délicieuse soirée!

Tonight, Domonic and I embarked on a culinary adventure at Chez Nous, which offers some of Austin's finest French fare. Never one to be timid, Domonic decided we should start the evening with an appetiser of escargot. "Magnifique" was the verdict. Already hooked on the French language, Domonic may well become a lifelong aficionado of French cuisine! Thanks to the generosity and kindness of the staff at Chez Nous, it was truly a memorable experience.

Bowling Extravaganza, Part II

Today was a really awesome day! Domonic and I went to Highland Lanes to flex our bowling muscles again, but this time with his brother and sister D'Andre and Tameka and their Bigs, Paul and Megan. We were also joined by reporter Kaitlin who is writing a feature story on Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Texas for Tribeza Magazine's December issue. The balls were rolling and the pins were dropping all over the place and we didn't even use the bumpers! Then the troop converged on Chuy's Restaurant for some absolutely Flan-tastic Tex-Mex. I can't wait until we all get together again!
