The Legend of Zelda is my all time favorite video game. Sure, I’ve [played games with way better graphics and more but there was a great thing about The Legend of Zelda. It was a challenging game and I spent many hours playing it. Leveling up Link to make him stronger and faster and harder to kill. It was one of the first games that saved your progress without need of a code or anything. There was a battery inside the game that keep your progress saved. I used to talk about this game with friend from school all the time. I remember my Nintendo Power magazines with tips and tricks on how to play the game.

Cut to several years later and the Nintendo Switch released The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. When I played that game the imagination I had of the land of Hyrule came to full HD life. It made me feel like I was a kid again and how excited I was to play Zelda and be a part of that world. I plan on introducing this to the kids. Not sure if they will have the same love of the game as I did nut I can hope.

Family Adventures, Food, Photo-A-Day

I took the family to Chub’s Blue Pig BBQ for lunch today and it did not disappoint. Everyone enjoyed the food and the atmosphere of the place. We decided to go with the sampler with a full rack of ribs. It is a good thing we got a full rack because Eva pretty much devoured a half rack all on her own. Andrew wasn’t as hungry. He must have been a bit off because all he did was pick. That isn’t like him. But, then again, Eva wasn’t quite herself either as you can see below.

Eva could not get enough of everything in the sample especially the ribs. She ate so many of them and if you tried to get anywhere near them she got quite possessive. Her friend Maryana coined the name Lourdes of the Ribs after Lord of the Rings and the Gollum character. I thought it more silly like Monty Python and the Holy Grail with the cute little attack bunny. Either way the whole family enjoyed a great lunch at Chub’s. A must eat place in our area.
