Gearhead Spa Retreat

Boutique Dallas hotel ZaZa has probably the best spa package experience ever created for those unique souls who love both a good rev-up and a good rub-down. The Full Throttle Packages, which come in 2,000 and 2,500 horsepower variations, include a half-hour ride in each of five high-powered vehicles through the Dallas-Fort Worth area and the surrounding countryside with a stop for lunch. The 2,500 horsepower version puts drivers in a Ferrari F430A, Ford GT, 2007 Porsche Turbo, Bentley Continental GT and Lamborghini Gallardo Spider, while the 2,000 horsepower variation lets drivers slide in behind the wheel of a Ferrari F360 F1, BMW M6 convertible, Aston Martin Vantage, 2006 Corvette Z06 and Lamborghini Gallardo Coupe.

After either adventure, drivers then return to the hotel for a "Rock Star" massage with heated basalt river stones, champagne and chocolate-covered strawberries in one of the hotel's luxury suites, and breakfast in bed or the hotel's gourmet Dragonfly restaurant.

The 2,500 horsepower packages rings up to $4,250 plus tax, while the 2,000 hp package goes for $3,850.

Dragonfly Measuring Spoons

Filed under: Dining

I admit that the measuring spoons I have in my kitchen are either plastic (rainbow colored, at that) or stainless steel. If I had known that there were spoons as beautiful as these Dragonfly Measuring Spoons, I may have rethought my purchases, though. The spoons are handmade from lead-free pewter and have a carefully done dragonfly design on each, as well as a decorated handle. They are food and dishwasher safe and come with a matching pewter hanging rack, so you can display them when not in use. Price: $43.
