All right, I'm not back in the saddle, but I am back in Texas!  It's time again for another round of purpose work here in Dallas.  It's said that there are only two things to do here, and that's eat and shop. So far, I've done a little of both, with a lot of purpose work squeezed into my free time.

The weather is about the same here as in Pittsburgh, which just tells you how mild of a winter we are having at home.  I am in a Panera's Bread Co. right now before my next appointment.  I live Panera's because they have free wireless Internet and, just in case I'm hungry, I can get something to eat. 

I went by my favorite BBQ place today and it's closed!  Holy Smokes is no more but there are plenty of restaurants to take its place.  I opted to go to Jason's Deli instead today, where there is a great salad bar.  I ate at Pappadeaux's Seafood the first night I was here and Salt Grass Steak House last night.  So many restaurants, so little time.

Not only are there a lot of restaurants here, but there is always a wait to get in.  I think most Dallas' homes don't have a kitchen, so people have to go out so often.  Well, I have to run.  If I don't eat soon, I will be off schedule and won't get in all the places I have in mind before I return home next Thursday.
