How much is too much?

So, I have been debating how much information I should divulge on my blog. I am normally a pretty open person, but if anyone can read my blog, how personal should I be? I guess I will just cross that path when I come to it.

If you can't already tell from my widget, I am pregnant. Almost 22 weeks. The time has flown by thank goodness. The first three months were horrible, all day sickness! Now I am just dealing with the fact that I am getting bigger and bigger and bigger. I want to eat everything. I was never really a carb eater, but now I don't feel like I can get enough. I need to watch what I am eating because I am starting to gain so much weight. Yuck. (But I LOVE food).

So back to my analysis of local resturants. Dave and I ate at Red, a new resturant that opened about a month or two months ago on Washington Ave. The atmosphere was very nice. A long narrow resturant, with lots of concrete and obviously lots of red. They mentioend that after 10:30 p.m. or so, thier goal is to turn it more into a night club. So, if you are like Dave and I, we were long gone by then. Plus being pregnant puts a damper on night life. Anyway, to the food...the salad appetizer dish we got was not great (it was spicy lettuce of something like that). The flat bread pizza was pretty boring. Dave ordered two small plates. A modernized beef stroginoff and a beef tenderloin with a cognac sauce and potatoes. They were the most amazing dishes. The beef literally melted in our mouths. It was amazing. I got a fish dish, which was very tasty as well, light and flacky with a grapfruit and strawberry sauce. Although it was nice, the beef was amazing. We highly reccomend trying it out. It wasn't cheap, but it wasn't outrageously expensive either. The wait staff was wonderful. We will go back, if we are ever in the mood to eat downtown again.

Okay, back to work.
