What’s your favorite movie that I didn’t list?
Every time we go to Texas we make a trip over to Grand Prairie, TX where we eat one of our “new” fav Fort Worth eateries; Ton’s Mongolian Grill. Rob introduced me to a restaurant of this sort when we went to Oregon. He used to eat at Chang’s at least once a week when he lived there. A few years ago Rob decided to look for a place like Chang’s in the DFW area and he was so excited to find Ton’s.
Ton’s is strictly a Mongolian Grill, where you get your raw meat and veggies. Fill up 1 or 2 bowls at time.
At the end of the bar, you can pick and choose, or go by the sauce guide hanging above. You have your choice of Mild, Medium, or Hot.
After adding in your sauce you bring it over to the guys at the grill and they cook it for you. They can cook about 10 servings at a time.
The reasons why we like this type of restaurant:
– choice of what you have in your stir-fry
– choice of sauces
– food is fresh and hot
– all you can eat
– well worth the price
– no other buffet items; meat and veggies are fresh cut
– small dish of ice cream handed out after your finished eating as a palate cleanser

Today I was looking around for something interesting to take a picture of. I feel myself getting into a creative slump. I got a bag of gummy worms on the way back from Texas and have wanted to take a pic of them. I tried different things, none of which “did it” for me. I found one of Monkey’s wiffle balls lying on the floor and decided to incorporate the worm with the ball symbolic of a worm emerging from a green apple….yah, I don’t know either! lol
These were sitting on the doorstep yesterday when we got home from the Track Meet. It actually totally made my day. I adore roses and I never get them, which is cool. These weren’t sent by my church in sympathy, which was so nice of them. I had lots of fun taking pics of them.
See a few other pics of them here.
Today Teenager had a Track Meet. I, of course, took way too many pictures. I thought this was a really cool shot of his friend. I think I used the Troy Action (free) from TRA.
The Blue & Gold Banquet for Cub Scouts was this evening. This is not the greatest of pictures, but I wanted to show Rob getting a gift of appreciation from the other leaders. The guy on the left is Rob’s good friend and Assistant Cubmaster, Ritch. If people only knew how much time, thought, and effort Rob puts into making cub scouts great! I honestly am not sure I can put a number on it, but it is staggering! He does an amazing job and I’m glad he is so passionate about making the Pack the very best for all of it’s members.
I hope this all makes sense, because at this point I’m delirious! 🙂
