How to Make Fire & Water Juice + Video
When I purchased this watermelon, it passed all of my “inspections”. It sounded dense & watery when tapped, it was a good size, no blemishes… Brought it home, cut into it and it looked amazing.

Chipotle Steak Salad Bowl Rocks: Dallas Restaurant Review
I’ve never had a Chipotle restaurant meal that I didn’t love. Their burritos are huge like FreeBirds, their salad bowls are my favorite, burrito bowls look amazing, etc. They have chicken, steak, ground beef, barbacoa and I believe one other type of meat to choose from.
