As you can tell I have been neglecting the betterfly as of late.  I sit at the computer every day for at least a few hours, it’s my job, but I can’t bring my self to write anything lately.  I think this is a result of being overwhelmed with the day job and my business.  Regardless, I am here now to give a brief update.

I started playing soccer again this summer.  It has been almost 2 years since I played.  In fact it has been almost 2 years since I have even attempted to run in any fashion.  That thought had me a little scared for the first game.  Despite not real aerobic activities and putting on a few pounds over the last couple of years I was actually able to run pretty well. Over the last few weeks my endurance has picked up quite a bit as well.  I can’t say the same for my touch on the ball.  My confidence with the ball at my feet has not been what I would like.  Given time I hope that will return as well. Regardless, it has been fun playing again and my knees and ankles haven’t bothered me once.

I played in the 13TH ANNUAL MUDD VOLLEYBALL TOURNAMENT on June 23.  As usual it was a blast.  I played on 2 teams which kept me in the mud most of the day.  One of the teams made it to the 3rd round so we were very happy with that.  Needless to say after being out in the sun all-day and exerting myself jumping around in one to two feet of mud and water I passed out cold when I got home.  The next morning I woke up and hurt in places I did not know existed.

I’ve been enjoying my new grill this summer.  I have cooked a couple steaks, some chicken, bratwursts, vegetables etc.  All have been wonderful.  However, the best thing I have cooked on the grill has been pizza.  Yes, Pizza!  I put a pizza stone on the grill fire it up nice and hot and toss a pie on it.  I have to say these are the best homemade pizza’s I have ever tasted.  I would say I have cooked up about 6 or 7 so far this summer.  I have been cheating a bit and buying dough balls at either Trader Joe or Dion’s.  But I have been making up my own sauce and using fresh toppings.  I have a few photos of a recent pie in the photo section.

Ok… that’s enough for now.

My favorite breakfast of all times in Huevos Rancheros. A couple of friends and I have decided to begin our “Quest for the Best!” to find the best Huevos Rancheros in Albuquerque. We are in the early planning stages at this point while we wait for Jeff to return from France. I wonder how the Huevos Rancheros are in Paris? We are compiling an initial list of locations to try and some basic criteria to judge on.

Everyone likes their Huevos Rancheros differently; some like it on flour tortillas while other prefer corn. Everyone likes his or her eggs differently as well. Some places serve whole pintos, others refried beans, and still other black beans.

For me the best Huevos Rancheros are:

• Scrambled eggs
• Pinto beans
• Fried potatoes or hash browns
• Smothered in green chile (the hotter the better)
• Topped with cheese

I hope to post our initial list of locations as well as our criteria in the near future. Soon to follow after than, hopefully on a weekly basis, will be the results of each experience. Hopefully the “Quest for the Best!” will continue on to other topics as well.

Well, I have been really lazy about posting the last couple of months. Lots of things that I could write about, but I lack any motivation right now. Here are some things you missing that I haven’t posted about.

• first wine tasting at Savoy
• new tattoo
• new dessert menu at Zinc
• upcoming quest for the best huevos rancheros
• other stuff I’m too lazy to think of right now…

Well, I have decided to go ahead and get another tattoo. The design I am going with is a lotus flower. However, I have not quite decided on which design to use. I thought… why not let people vote. So now I present to you the first poll at Betterfly.

I will likely get the tattoo when I am on vacation the week of March 12, so vote soon. I will leave the location a mystery at this time, but the tattoo will be 1 to 1.5 inches in size.

I was poking around today and noticed some new events in the RSS Feed for Savoy Bar & Grill. The Grand Opening event is finally scheduled for March 3 and it sounds like it will be a great time. Additionally they are starting wine tastings every other Saturday. The two they currently have scheduled are both priced at $15 per person for multiple tastings and light fair. The tasting events are going to be from 3pm to 5pm. It looks like I will have something to do on my lazy Saturday afternoons.

Anyway… on to my main point. It was about lunchtime and my buddy Jeff and I decided to shoot up the heights for lunch at Savoy. Granted it’s a trek and traffic was a bear in some spots we made it across town. We started off with the Classic Marguerita Flatbread (basil, tomato, house made mozzarella) as an appetizer. It was delicious and very fresh; the thick tomatoes had a wonderful taste and texture. Jeff and I both order the Classic Angus Burger. Granted it’s just a hamburger, we wanted to try it out.

Ok… I’m really going to talk about the dessert now. We were done eating and I decided I would look at the dessert menu to refresh my memory. Unfortunately some of the desserts looked to good to pass up on. With the trusty advice of my Savoy friends Lynn and Nicolette I decided to try the Chocolate Mousse Torte.

OH… MY… GOD!!!

This was the best dessert I have ever had. Seems Savoy has hired them self a winning pastry chef. Darci Boucher was previously a pastry chef at The Wynn Resort, Le Cirque and Picasso. Darci comes to Savoy from Vegas and brings what looks to be a top-notch talent for satisfying my sweet tooth. I tried to order 6 more to go, but Jeff wrestled me out the door. I recommend you get to Savoy right this minute and have yourself some dessert.

Keep an eye on the special events at Savoy… one of the upcoming events is an Amazing Champagne, Cheese and Dessert Tasting. Make your reservation now to see wonderful treats Darci has cooked up for this event.

It may only be stress, but lately I have been feeling lost and an urge to do something new. I don’t think I am having a midlife crisis, but you never know. They say the average age for a midlife crisis is 46, so I am quite a ways off from that. I think my issues stem from the drama I have had to deal with at work over the last year and my total lack of any social activities. Ok, that’s a lie. I do get out but not nearly as much as I should.

If I was to have a midlife crisis, I don’t think it will be your typical, “go out and buy a sports car”. I say this mainly because I don’t really like to drive, and getting a sports car just doesn’t fit. I think lately my urges have been more of rebellion of sorts.

I have started to dip in to my list of tattoos. I’ve always been very cautious of getting tattoos so that I don’t have any regrets. My list is pretty short, but it is a list I have thought over for years. I currently have only 2 tattoos, the latest I got last October. However, both of my currents ones were at least 5 years in the making. The list I have of other potentials is down to 3. I think in the next month that list will be down to 2.
