Tickets are on sale for Alegria a Cirque Du Soleil show!
The show is June 16th - June 20th. You can find out more information about the venue and tickets on Berrycenter.net. I am so excited about this show! I have seen a total for 3 Cirque Du Soleil shows, Quidam, Corteo and Kooza. Each show was breathtaking and very interesting. The way the stories are portrayed you have to stay tuned in or else you’ll miss something. The dance and athleticism is amazing.
Alegria is a mood, a state of mind. It’s the power and the handing down of power over time, the evolution from ancient monarchies to modern democracies, old age and youth.
The clip below has me really stoked:

Free Press Summer Fest 2010 is this weekend!
This music and arts festival will be held June 5th and 6th at Buffalo Bayou’s Eleanor Tinsley Park and will feature more than 50+ national and local musical performers, visual arts and games. It will be from 12pm to 10pm both nights.
This year is the Grammy Award winning band The Flaming Lips will be on stage. The overall lineup is incorporating a wider geographic range. The festival welcomes the addition of a third stage and an exciting expansion of the scope and area of artist installations. Also, festival-goers can take a break from the heat and browse dozens of local artisan booths, cool off in one of the misting tents and grab an icy cold adult beverage in the shaded beer garden.
This event is going to be huge! I can’t wait to see what other musicians they have brought in for this festival. You can find out more about this event by visiting VisitHoustonTexas.com

Best Sushi in Town
I went to Edojin yesterday and the sushi was yummy! I am vegetarian and I don’t eat seafood. I split Edamame and Tempura for appetizers which were delicious. I know you can’t really go wrong making Edamame. The Tempura was perfectly cooked and the veggies tasted fresh. For my meal, I asked them to make me a special vegetarian role. It had cucumber, carrots and mushrooms in it with brown rice which was delicious. Everything tasted very fresh. My friend eats meat; and he ordered Rocky Mountain Roll and Volcano Roll. He loved both of them.
We will definitely be coming here again. The chef was also very helpful and kind. We sat at the bar so he would give us samples to taste while we were waiting on our food.
The restaurant is located at 12344 Barker Cypress Rd. 77429
Have you eaten at Edojin before? What is your favorite item on the menu?
