Dinner: We drove down to San Antonio for Chinese New Year's Dinner at Braden and Kelly's house. For dinner, they cooked several Chinese dishes and provided a few restaurant prepared dishes. It was a great dinner with old friends and a couple of new friends. Here are some of the dishes:

Lunch: I had half a slice of BJ's Southwestern Pizza (Chipotle tomato sauce with spicy blackened chicken, green chilies, cheddar cheese and diced tomatoes topped with fresh cilantro). I thought it was too much cheese (way to heavy).
