L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon

So now I have dined at L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon (located inside the MGM Grand in Vegas). I went with Janis, she is an enthusiastic foodie like me. I had the vegetarian tasting menu.



I thought everything varied in degrees from tasty to good, except the tofu which was bland. My absolute favorite part of the meal were my two desserts and my latte, I even drank Janis's latte cause she didn't like it....but I did!







Overall I was satisfied with my culinary experience at L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon because that's what it is - an experience. You don't just sit down an order something and scarf it down, you sit and eat for a few hours. Janis was not as satisfied as I was with the meal but I am easy to please in general.....latte and something yummy and sweet? OK, I am happy!
Both of us would love to dine at Restaurant Joël Robuchon (next door to L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon), which has three Michelin stars.....impressive, so I can just imagine how amazing the food is there but THAT experience is also a pricey one.

Already March

Can you believe it is March already? Time flies and life goes on regardless of if you are happy or sad.....the days and years go by so fast it scares me. Carpe Diem they say and yeah......really Carpe Diem I guess, all that you can because everybody's days are accounted for no matter who you are.
So I spent most of yesterday outside.....exploring my neighborhood some more. Doing my best to seize the day you know.....



Drove the Red Rock scenic route.....I think it is a 13 mile loop, some fitness enthusiasts pedal it on bike. However you do it - it's beautiful.





Chhaya was with me of course!



I decided to go to Bonnie Springs Ranch since it's only a few miles away from Red Rock. I did not go into the zoo though, I have already done that once and it's a sad experience to see those miserable caged up animals. I still think about some of them years after I went there.





Bonnie Springs Ranch has many fun photo opportunities. If you go alone, just ask somebody to take a picture of you. I do that all the time. No dogs allowed in there, so Chhaya had to wait in the car, I parked in complete shade and she took a nap.





Later that evening in the park.....that same night we went to another park for a late night walk.





I actually saw a COMET (?) during this walk. Something lit up the sky in passing and it was not a shooting star. That "something" had a tail. I was quite amazed to see it.



Not sure yet what me and Chhaya will do today, we just had lunch but I think that we will have a good day.

Leap Year

How can I possibly not write an entry today on February 29? Leap year, four more years until the next one. What will my life, your life....the world as we know it look like then? You never know, so be grateful right now today, if you are blessed with the priceless things in life.
I'm going to take Chhaya out for a late night walk in a bit but first I will tell you what I have been up to the last couple of days.....
I drove to check out the sights here in Nevada, Chhaya came with me of course.





I saw a movie and yes, I want to be comfy and cozy when I see a movie, so I make sure I bring an extra hoodie or a jacket and a pair of thick and fluffy socks and then I can stretch my legs out (if there is room to do so of course).
I saw The Witch. I think I had my fingers in my ears and covered my eyes for about a third of the movie, I did not want to hear all the screaming and see certain parts, I found this movie disturbing and I like scary movies although sometimes I don't know why I subject myself to that.....?



Today we went to Nelson ghost town. Found this witch sign in a window.



Chhaya poses for pics like a professional model. She needs an agent and a few contracts.







My beautiful baby and friend - I love her SO much. No words can do justice to describe my love for her.



And I managed to find a new bra.....finally! And a new purse for work. I think the Hello Kitty purse needs to rest for a while. Or for good. I actually already have a "purse" just like this.
I think it's meant to hold your make up (make up bag) but it can be used as a purse too I think.
