Thursday: Steak or Fashion?
Steak You might say the answer to that question divides along gender lines, but really, it’s a toss-up for me. Houston legend Perry’s Steakhouse and Grille hosts a Grand Opening dinner Thursday night with four courses and wine pairings from the restaurant’s exclusive private label. The restaurant is in the Norwood building where a bank…

Nerd Alert: New Google BROWSER
Hey-o! Sometimes my nerdy side comes out and I get really excited about techy things, like the new Google browser!

Apparently it’s quite the singles scene, as well, so business cards are exchanged as much for dates as they are for…
