Football, golf, beer and fruit?


Ah bliss. Football season officially kicked off last night with the first pre-season games. I'm so in love ... and it was the first day of the PGA Championship. Those two sports are the best, with college trumping pro.

In addition to watching grown men play with pigskins and drivers, you know what the "height" of sport season means dontcha? Pre-game grilling and beer. lol. Of course you can always eat those foods, but it more fun when you know that your team -- GO TEXAS LONGHORNS! GO COWBOYS! -- is going to go kick some Big 12/NFC East jerseys. =)

I like Whitlow's on Wilson. Cheap food and beer. Also, the Texas Exes watch at Rhodeside Grill. Again cheap food and beer.

Speaking of beer, I was wrong to say that it was this week. OOPS! I blame that on the "jet-lag." Instead it starts this Sunday. There is a strong likelihood you will catch me at Brassiere Beck on Monday before I head to the Meese concert at the 930 club or on Wednesday night at District Chophouse to sample one of their inhouse brewed specials.

As for this weekend, I've always wanted to visit Monticello. I've never gone -- sad, I know, considering how much of a political junkie I am! -- but this Saturday they are having a "Summer Fruit Tasting." For a mere $10, you can try the fruits of Thomas Jefferson's garden. Should be a great trip!
