			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>I had a great time getting together with Kari, one of my best friends, for lunch.&#160; We decided on Chopsticks to catch up on what’s going on in each other’s lives. </p>
<p>I was feeling sushi, so I started with an eel roll.</p>
<p><a href="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/004.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="004" border="0" alt="004" src="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/004_thumb.jpg" width="364" height="484" /></a></p>
<p>My all time favorite roll to chow down on.</p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p><a href="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/005.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="005" border="0" alt="005" src="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/005_thumb.jpg" width="444" height="334" /></a></p>
<p>Kari decided on General Tao&#8217;s Chicken and rice. </p>
<p><a href="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/016.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="016" border="0" alt="016" src="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/016_thumb.jpg" width="446" height="336" /></a></p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p>I think it was a good choice!</p>
<p><a href="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/013.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="013" border="0" alt="013" src="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/013_thumb.jpg" width="431" height="324" /></a></p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p>I’m also sure this is our favorite restaurant in town, we always pick Chopsticks.</p>
<p><a href="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/014.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="014" border="0" alt="014" src="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/014_thumb.jpg" width="425" height="484" /></a> </p>
<p>More sushi&#160; (volcano roll)</p>
<p><a href="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/010.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="010" border="0" alt="010" src="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/010_thumb.jpg" width="431" height="324" /></a></p>
<p>Usually the volcano rolls are delicious, but I wasn’t feeling this one.&#160; I think it was made in a hurry and too much sauce was added, on top.</p>
<p>So I ate a few rolls and left the rest.</p>
<p><a href="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/009.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="009" border="0" alt="009" src="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/009_thumb.jpg" width="428" height="322" /></a></p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p>Later that evening, Chris and I headed out to ‘’Taste of Dallas’’.&#160; It was too hot outside, so we lingered around the inside booth areas to cool off.&#160; </p>
<p>I had planned on checking out more booths to sample food, but the inside area with the jewelry shops had most of my attention.</p>
<p>We did check out <a href="http://www.trailercakes.com">Trailer Cakes</a>, which was a really cute, local bakery selling mini-cupcakes.</p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p><a href="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/0241.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="0241" border="0" alt="0241" src="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/0241_thumb.jpg" width="461" height="323" /></a></p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p>I tried their popular PB&amp;J cupcake, which the booth lady stated was awesome… and of course it was DELICIOUS!!</p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p><a href="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/PBJ-Cupcake.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="PBJ Cupcake" border="0" alt="PBJ Cupcake" src="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/PBJ-Cupcake_thumb.jpg" width="378" height="422" /></a></p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p>Then it was Spazmatic time!</p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p><a href="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/034.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="034" border="0" alt="034" src="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/034_thumb.jpg" width="456" height="343" /></a></p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p>I had to capture them singing Vanilla Ice, but ‘’Jessie’s Girl’’ is my favorite song they sing. </p>
<p>&#160;</p>

<p>&#160;</p>
<p>Definitely a fun weekend!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Craft Corner!</p>
<p>All that ribbon was purchased today, at the dollar tree…can you ever have enough? </p>
<p>I plan to to get crafty and enjoy the three day holiday weekend, away from the office. </p>
<p>&#160; <a href="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/ribbons.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="ribbons" border="0" alt="ribbons" src="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/ribbons_thumb.jpg" width="484" height="484" /></a></p>
<p>I still haven’t decided what exactly I’m making but I’m sure it’s jewelry related.</p>
<p>Tonight Chris and I went to <a href="http://www.fuzzystacoshop.com/">Fuzzy’s Taco Shop</a>….delicious&#160; and yet plenty of healthy, inexpensive menu options.</p>
<p>Chris has been&#160; talking about Fuzzy’s for weeks now, so tonight we dined. </p>
<p>Yes, I did eat Fuzzy’s earlier with coworkers….it’s just that dang good.&#160; I even had the same plate of grilled shrimp tacos too!&#160; Can you even see the grilled shrimp…it’s hidden very well. </p>
<p>My kind of taco filled with lettuce and cilantro!</p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p><a href="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/106.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="106" border="0" alt="106" src="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/106_thumb.jpg" width="456" height="397" /></a></p>
<p>Followed by a massive cup of black beans!!</p>
<p><a href="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/109.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: ; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="109" border="0" alt="109" src="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/109_thumb.jpg" width="457" height="366" /></a></p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p>Anyways, I’m excited for July 1st tomorrow and have a few things I need to work on: </p>
<p><u>Cooking:</u>&#160; We’ve been eating out a lot with friends . As much as I love the company…cutting back and saving $$ would be nice.&#160;&#160; I plan to have a dinner nights, at home and invite friends over; incorporating&#160; games after dessert.&#160; </p>
<p>Sounds like a good idea…plus it’s still incorporating ‘’friend time’’. </p>
<p><u>Reading:</u> I keep downloading books onto my Kindle. I promised myself, no more books till I finish the new three, recently&#160; downloaded . </p>
<p><u>Yoga:</u> I already know, transitioning from one position at work to another…will require morning ZEN and ice coffee. <img style="border-bottom-style: none; border-left-style: none; border-top-style: none; border-right-style: none" class="wlEmoticon wlEmoticon-smile" alt="Smile" src="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/wlEmoticon-smile.png" />&#160; I wish I could go into details about the strange/quirky people, I encounter at the office daily. (that would make a great 2nd blog) ha-ha.</p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p><strong><em>Any plans for the holiday weekend?</em></strong> I plan to go swimming, eat grilled corn ,fruit salad and watch some FC Dallas soccer! </p>

<p>Having fun in Houston!  </p>
<p>Chris and I took a short road trip to watch the Gold Cup 2011, U.S. Men vs. Panama yesterday evening!  </p>
<p>U.S won and afterwards we watched Mexico beat Honduras&#8230; huge crowds came out for this fun event! </p>
<p>Chris sporting my crazy American glasses! </p>
<p><a href="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/20110623-085400.jpg"><img src="http://niccisniftyeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/20110623-085400.jpg" alt="20110623-085400.jpg" class="alignnone size-full" /></a></p>
<p>Although were leaving tomorrow, it&#8217;s been fun.  We discovered a new burger place down here&#8230;later found out there is actually one back home &#038; took a tour of Houston&#8217;s NASA Space Center. </p>
<p>I&#8217;ll blog about today&#8217;s events later this week.</p>
