I actually welcome the rain especially since experts have said that there's been a drought in California for 5 years now. I've been through droughts and water rationing before, and that is no fun!

The restaurant atmosphere was friendly and comfortable. The menu consists of American diner-type items (burgers and sandwiches) as well as a variety of appetizers, salads, pizza, pasta and dinner entrees. For dinner that night, we

It is showing on the giant screen which is separate from the main Edwards theatre. edwards coliseum theatre When we left the theatre, the line was already out the door for the next show.

Just when we had given up hope and placed this movie in our good ol' Netflix queue, guess what? The Fresno Edwards theatre (Riverpark) will be showing Sideways starting Friday Jan 21. Sideways was first released 3 months ago in limited theatres on Oct 22, 2004. It has received rave reviews and recently won 2 Golden Globes, one for Best Picture Comedy. I was checking Fandango to see if there

Recently there was an article in the Fresno Bee regarding El Salvador and pupusas. I was intrigued. I've never been to El Salvador and never tasted pupusas before. So it was obvious that we simply had to go and try it! Off we went to the mentioned restarant in downtown Fresno, Rincon Salvaldoreño, that serves these pupusas.

Don't know about y'all but we get real lazy in the winters...especially with the current cold and wet winter season! But, there's plenty of stuff going on in town each week and they are definitely incentives for us to tear ourselves away from the tv.
