neighborhood

Wow, there is a local eco store just south of Hampton. Ever since moving into the new house I've been looking into eco-friendly choices for any home stuff. I'll definitely need to check this store out:

Home Eco on Macklind, 63109

Also another local store that caught my eye is Local Harvest - a grocery store on Morganford, across the street from Three Monkeys and catty corner from Tin Can.

Any other store I should check out? Leave a comment.

rethinking...

Wow, didn't find out till today - that there is no Pizza Hut delivery in our area. Maybe it IS a good time to start a cheap chinese restaurant right round the corner.

cheap chinese restaurant?

There is this neighborhood restaurant down the street from our new place - Thurman Grill. The boy and I have been there once and the food was pretty good.

Well I was told this morning that they are closing their doors after new years. Rumor has it that the owner will still be running his catering operation at the current location, but they will no longer be open for restaurant business.

I wish I can open an "asian" restaurant in it's place. The location seemed pretty ideal (it's a corner lot) and who doesn't eat asian food? Especially if it's "cheap asian". I could have a menu of all the asian appetizers: spring rolls, egg rolls, pastries, dumplings, and fried Wontons.

But the big question remains: who's gonna be the cook? Certainly not I! Anybody interested? I'll supply the VC and you supply the food :)

Oh well just wishful thinking.

Seriously...

Spotted in South Charlotte. I HAD to snap a pic. It's a BMW E34 5 series I believe.
