The other night we went to my cousin&#8217;s new restaurant in Plano, TX, called Loft 610. It&#8217;s an upscale place with great food and a relaxed atmosphere.

<p>The other night we went to my cousin&#8217;s new <a title="Loft 610" href="http://www.loft610.com/">restaurant in Plano, TX</a>, called Loft 610. It&#8217;s an upscale place with great food and a relaxed atmosphere. </p>

<p><span id="more-119"></span></p>
<p>We sat up in the loft, almost exactly where the picture was taken. My entree I believe was called a White Russian Lasagna, with the different layers mimicking how a white russian is made. </p>
<p>It was made with A LOT of tasty lamb, and coffee flavored pasta. It was very good, and far from the microwave lasagnas I&#8217;m used to. <img src='http://blog.steveheffernan.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>After dinner we hung out in the bar for a bit, which apparently gets pretty crowded every night. I&#8217;m kicking myself for not sticking around longer.</p>
<p>Check it out if you&#8217;re ever in Texas.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What is up with Ginger Ale? Why am I only drawn to it when I&#8217;m 35,000 feet up? I&#8217;m not the only one either. I&#8217;ve sat next to countless people who order a Ginger Ale at the same time as me, which inevitably leads to a discussion about how we only get it on planes, but never a reason why.<span id="more-23"></span>Does it go great with tiny bags of salted peanuts or pretzels? Was there some subliminal marketing campaign in the past that convinced everyone it was the perfect inflight beverage?</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve heard there&#8217;s some medicinal/health benefit of ginger ale, but that&#8217;s gotta be BS, or at least something of the past before they stripped out all the nutrients to add more corn syrup. But if that&#8217;s still the perception, it could be that people are trying to help their immune systems a little while they&#8217;re sharing recycled air in a crowded cabin. But then why not drink orange juice?</p>
<p>&#8230;it&#8217;s a mystery.</p>
