went out to see angels and demons with mama and gary on a thursday night. it was a very sleepy week that we had the whole cinema to ourselves. no kidding!
then we had dinner (more like midnight snacks) at denny's.
can somebody tell me how to put two photos side by side? my blog layout sucks...

what's for dinner?
just a quick post. i stumbled upon a gold mine when i purchased a good slice of beef, a container of steak rub (which consists of ground peppers, paprika, garlic, salt and chili), and a bottle of steak sauce.
i have never tried using a convection oven my entire life, so i had to google my way into cooking steak for dinner. i failed to take an 'after' photo, but this was the steak during purgatory, a good 45 minutes before it turned into a heavenly creation :D
we brought mama to the factory outlets in new mexico last weekend. she. had. a. blast. bought stuff for my brothers, the new baby (yey!) and everyone else. talk about great finds. she bought herself a pair of nine west suede, wine-colored shoes and an ann taylor, blood-red leather wallet for insanely low prices. here we are doing what we do best:
gary played the good son-in-law part to a t, showing us around, carrying our bags, and taking our pictures.
that is until we showed no sign of stopping. here he is, hungry, sleepy and, well, a little impatient :D

barbie doll arrives :D
mama made it to el paso on mother's day weekend. soooo good to see her again.
my dad gave her the corny monicker barbie doll to make me and my brothers cringe. we still laugh about it whenever we remember. since papa passed, and all her kids started moving out, mama's been used to living on her own in bataan. it's nice to get the chance to spend some time with her, even under the scorching heat of the texas sun.
oh, did i mention gary and i are eating kaldereta, and galantina, and chopsuey these days? :D
here waiting for my brother and his kids to go online
at fort bliss
after mother's day lunch
