Window shopping is a form of masochism that I have never understood or practiced. Unless you literally have money to burn, why would you purposefully go out and walk the malls and department stores for clothes that you haven’t got the money for, have no use for, no room in the closet for…or for that [...]
A special friend surprised me with a dinner at one of the newest steak houses in town…and was I amazed! We dined at Ron’s Steakhouse, which is located at Arizona Charlie’s on Decatur.
