Achieving Your Life Mission

I saw this book in Deseret Book's mail advertisement a couple months ago and decided to check it out from the library. Although nothing Wright says is really new to me, he presented the same old stuff in a new light.

My favorite part is the exercises at the end of each chapter. Sometimes I feel like I don't know how to go about change in my life, but the exercises gave me direction and a renewed sense of purpose. I also loved the numerous quotes and guidance from the prophets and apostles. I was sorry to return it to the library, but hopefully I'll find it under the tree in a few weeks. :)

Bang Bang Chicken and Shrimp @ Cheesecake Factory!

We'll make this a quick recommendation, since pretty much anything you order from Cheesecake Factory is bound to be 100% amazing. We went there in San Antonio today for my birthday lunch. Ty and I always share lunch since the portions are huge, and we can't go to C.F. without having cheesecake (its pretty much a sin in our house).

So, we ordered the Bang Bang Chicken and Shrimp. Description: A Spicy Thai Dish with the Flavors of Curry, Peanut, Chile and Coconut. Sautéed with Vegetables and Served over Steamed White Rice. See below.

Seriously. 100% yumminess.

It was scrum-didlee-umptious. We also had the Wild Blueberry White Chocolate Cheesecake. Also 100% amazing. I don't understand why it has to be so far away! Ok, so I actually do, but I wish I could live closer to one :P
Have you ever had a piece of cheesecake here and not like it? I didn't think so.

So there you have it! Another dish to try at Cheesecake Factory!

Love,

changes

Alright...so 2009 is almost over and our little book club is a bit dusty. So I'm making an executive decision and changing the focus of the blog. Just make it a platform to share stuff you think is cool. Then there's no pressure to read anything and there's no deadlines.

First Quarter Book

Now that Makamae's wedding is over and no one has expressed an opinion either way, I'll pick The Hunger Games for our first book of 2009. Hopefully it's not a dud. So ya'll have till the end of March to get this one read.
