Fish Better Than Dad's Steak

Hello Everyone,
I just wanted to say hello again. Since this is the most free time I have had in a very long time, I have decided to try this blogging thing out. To tell you the truth, I really miss being busy....most of the time. Anyway, about the topic of this blog, I was in my hotel room last night and decided to order room service. I looked over the menu and found a dish named the Golden Bream. So I ordered it and thought, well maybe this fish will be ok. I will just say....that that was the best fish I have ever put in my mouth. In fact, it was so good, I almost ate the head of the fish including the eyeballs. I will tell you right now that if I had a choice between one of my dad's famous ribeyes and that fish, I would have chosen the fish. I have never eaten anything like it. I told a few people about it and they told my dad and when I talked to him today we had a nice discussion. Well, I gotta go. Talk to you later.

Porto, Portugal

Here are some pictures of the city of Porto from the airplane. Also included are pictures of the view from the mall balcony where I ate dinner. I was on the 3rd floor. The bridge you see was built by the same guy who built the Eiffel Tower. I don't think I spelled that right but oh well. In fact, I think the name of the guy who built the Eiffel Tower was Eiffel. One thing I will say about Portugal is that so far the people are very friendly and laid back and families seem to be a priority. People also eat dinner around 8:00pm. Talk to you all later. Miss you all and love you! Mark

Awesome!

I don't think I have ever watched Jimmy Fallon, but I found this online this morning from his show last night. Talk about a blast from the past. Laura, this is for you!

p.s. Click on the little box to make it full screen--it's still great quality, plus you can see the spray-on tan a whole lot better!

When Mom's Away.........

So this is what happens when mom steps out of the room and Joseph decides he wants to eat his breakfast while watching Dora..............


He took his bowl and the Kix off of the table and to the playroom where he proceeded to pour himself some cereal. This is what happened when the meanest-mom-in-the-world found out.......
I made him vacuum it up even though he is terrified of the vacuum. I think he may have overcome that fear today because he ended up having a blast cleaning everything up. Try as I might, I do not think a lesson was learned here. :(

Obsessed much?

Well there is no way this can possibly be as good as the book, but nonetheless, here is the New Moon trailer. I can't wait! 'Nuff said. (Wht am I, 12?)
