About 3 years ago, my cousin Peter introduced me to this amazing cajun/creole restaurant that’s hidden inside a Vegas hotel frequented by locals & seniors called the Oyster Bar in Palace Station. When I adventured back to Vegas for the 4th of July weekend, I was determined to get everyone to try it. The bar behind the restaurant serves $3 Bloody Mary’s & $0.99 margaritas as Jimmy, Josh, Kelcie, & I learned as we waited 2 hours in line for the most delicious red bowl of seafood goodness that awaited us. It was my third time at the Oyster Bar & everyone else’s first, so I was there on a mission: to figure out all the ingredients they use to make this bowl of perfection.

My parents weren’t kidding when they told me that my 20s would fly by before I knew it. Just a few hours ago, my mom asked me when I was going to get married since I’m almost older than she was when she married my dad. Wonderful. Anyway, I can’t believe it’s already 2012! Time flies; better make the most of it.
Celebrating the New Year! |
I celebrated New Year’s Eve in Vegas (making it the fifth time this year…) & went on a food adventure all the way to Chino Hills to experience the deliciousness that is The Boiler. I now only have 5 days left to finish my last book, Choke by Chuck Palahniuk if I want to finish my goal of reading 5 books this break! Hopefully everyone had a great time on New Year’s Eve!
