December 29, 1981

That was a good day. Today is a reminder for me that I'm officially 27 years old.

People have been asking me what do I plan on doing to celebrate...and my answer is simple...NOTHING.

You guys read about my life - you see how I live. Each day is a celebration for me, it really is. When I get the urge to live life, I live it. When I feel like celebrating others just because, I celebrate. When I decide to cook a good meal for myself just because, then I cook it. So, today for me is nothing more than just a reminder - because I vowed a long time ago to celebrate every stage of life when it happens...and that's what I do. So yup - today's my b-day - but it doesn't mean anything - lol.

In other news - the tapings for Everyday Cookin have been going phenomenally well! We've been having a blast. Here, take a peak!

Don't forget - 1/11/2009. If you want to get your e-mail on the Everyday Cookin'.com list - e-mail me - darius@everydaycookin.com and I'll be sure to keep you updated...okay?!?!

    Ahahhahahaha - LOVE IT! Perfect with the over-talking while you're taping, ribbing the other guys, playing with accents, making mango jokes -- it's real.

    Happy birthday. Your show is great, as is your excellent food.

    I think I'm your oppoiste. I love people making fusses over my birthday. I'm such an attention whore/drama queen. I'll take any excuse to cook a nice meal, but I love having an excuse to have someone buy me dinner!

    Your blog keeps getting better and better! Your older articles are not as good as newer ones you have a lot more creativity and originality now. Keep it up!
    And according to this article, I totally agree with your opinion, but only this time! :)
