Ocean Beach

     Had a relaxing off week with trying new recipes, movies, pool time, and exploring malls.  We ran out of s'more pie, so I had to make a dessert on the fly.  I have become addicted to having something sweet after dinner.  I didn't want to go to the store, so I pulled out Granny Irene's recipe for chip chocolate cookies.  I've never made these, but mom insisted on giving me the recipe before I left.  They sure were yummy!  We have a tradition in the Dick household of making a huge cookie with the bottom of the batter.  It is a little weird, but we enjoy the huge cookie!!

     This weekend we decided to try out another area.  We drove to Ocean Beach.  This was an interesting place.  They did have a street with some bars, shops, and restaurants, so I was excited.  The weather was awesome, so it was nice to walk around the town.  It was even a little chilly for me, glad I wore jeans!  Time to break out long sleeves!!  We walked down to the beach area to check that out.  As we were walking down there I'm like those people are smoking pot on the street!!  There was a man walking by about the same time telling them to hide their shit!!  Lol!  Seemed like all I could smell as we walked the streets was weed.  At least I know where to go to get my weed fix! LOL!  We went to South Beach Bar and Grill to finish watching the Aggie game and have a few beers.  That game had me going nuts!!  I'm glad I missed part of the third quarter or I may have been going more crazy!  The restaurant had a great view from the the second floor overlooking the beach.  We ordered some fish tacos and wow were they amazing!!!  After dinner, I thought a taste of what I like about Texas was just what I needed!  We went to Dairy Queen to get a blizzard!!  It was a great ending to the night.  It just so happened to be our 14 month anniversary, so I thought I deserved a blizzard! 
     Now we have been to IB and OB, so next we need to try PB (Pacific Beach).  The weather is getting cooler here, and now we can open the windows and turn off the AC; kind of nice.  Some evenings we go for a short walk around the neighborhood, I will even tell Geoff I almost need my hoodie out here!  I have another free week ahead; I guess this week will be operation clean house!  What an exciting life, I know... Lol

That's What I Like About Texas!
