The Taste Buds

First there was spring break, then a quick hop out of town, plus the two children, full time volunteer school job, and one short story project that is far from complete and due in a few short days; in essence, I'm getting very little accomplished while appearing to be quite busy. Just as my high school guidance counselor knew I would someday be, running in circles yet making no butter.

So I opted to do something else, writing restaurant reviews for my children and their friend Noah, three savvy epicureans who boldly step away from the children's menu when presented with duck fried rice and spicy tuna rolls. Read what they've been eating here, on Chicago Now.

This new undertaking has forced me to use Twitter, which I routinely call Tweeter, and to twit, or tweet; my confusion being painful to my young, hip, twit friendly husband. Follow the Taste Buds, @thetastebuds3, and like them on Facebook. Or, if you prefer, just like them, in real life, as I do. But find the time to read what they're eating, far more productive than running in circles.
