Watch Out Waistline

In a previous post I mentioned along with the great public schools in our new county comes a wealth of eateries, something that was lacking at our previous address.  To help me get a grasp of everything that is offered, I found the HowChow blog - http://howchow.blogspot.com.

It boasts itself as 'A guide to food in Howard County with the best dining in Columbia, Ellicott City, Elkridge, Fulton, etc.'

It truly does provide a myriad of options to try and with the wife being such a picky eater, it looks like the kid and I will be counting calories together.

The Great Exodus

It’s official…we’ve made the move to the land of more bourgeois and less “ethnic”.  Where organic food is the norm, not the exception.  Where we can go to dinner at any number of non-chain restaurants in about 10 minutes and where keeping your lawn manicured is a competition.  Ah….we’re in buppie heaven!! 

Having kids changes all your priorities.  Who knew at this age we would even care where the best school district is?  Or where he can start playing soccer at age 3…. people, that’s huge!!  We’ve bought a house that is full of “country charm” aka awful wallpaper and we don’t even really care.  We will be removing wallpaper until our child graduates….from high school, we hope.

Stay tuned…more to come.

PS…what the heck is a stink bug and why are they running rampant in this county?!?
