 “Notebook” Cedar Park, 2022

I am getting close to finishing my current notebook, which is a rare thing. I tend to buy lots of notebooks, but most are either empty or barely used. Over the past few months, though, I’ve been consistently jotting little sentences and phrases down in the notebook that my son Bay bought for me when he went to New York City a couple of years ago.

The game-changer has been my Miseyo date stamp. It’s so fun to use each morning, and it gets me in the mood for writing… even just a few words here and there. 😀

 “Dinner and a Show” Cedar Park, 2022

I started watching Long Way Up, which is the third series of motorcycle journeys from Charley Boorman and Ewan McGregor. The first series, Long Way Round, was one of the reasons why I got into motorcycling. Very good!

Also very good, was my veggie burger on homemade country bread, and seasoned fries (frozen).

A very nice evening.

 “Thai Curries” Cedar Park, 2022

A new Thai restaurant named Lemongrass opened recently near us, and I saw that you can choose the spiciness level from 1-10. This got me excited because with a scale like that, it must mean they are serious about the level of heat, right? And since CoCo Ichibanya also has a 1-10 scale, it would be fun to compare.

With that in mind, I went ahead and ordered a level 10 Panang Curry, and Bay ordered a level Green Curry. Both were delicious! But, I am sorry to report that the spiciness level was a bit too mild for me. The level 10 was probably equal to a 5 or 6 at CoCo. 😒

Oh well, the curries were really good, nonetheless, and the rest of the menu looks great as well. I can’t wait to try more dishes from Lemongrass!
