Delicious thoughts: Wow, there's a whole lot of good eats up and down Davis St. -- last week's dish was from Tejano's restaurant, and now, it's Bolsa that's captured my heart. Again. This dish actually preceded the sausage pizza I wolfed down on my last visit to Bolsa. It's a rich, creamy poblano soup topped with hearty flakes of sharp white cheddar cheese. Once the cheese softened to a stirrable consistency, so did my heart. The soup had a sumptuously velvety mouthfeel, and the sharpness of the cheese went well with the mild spiciness of the pepper. My companion and I wanted to lick our bowls clean. But we kept it classy.
DALLAS (AP) -- This weekend's Dallas-Tampa Bay matchup will feature a little more head-banging than most NFL games.
The heavy metal band Free Reign, which includes three Cowboys offensive linemen, will debut its new song "Rise Up" during Sunday's Fox telecast of the game in Tampa Bay.
The band is made up of Marc Colombo on guitar and vocals, Cory Procter on drums, Leonard Davis on bass and non-football player Justin Chapman on guitar.
The song is described by Riot Entertainment in a news release issued by the Cowboys on Friday as a "soon to be embraced stadium anthem." The band's EP "Tragedy" is expected to be released in November.

Drama much?: Epperson got all weepy when he took a break to exchange heartfelt I love yous with his family. When he returned to the work room, the camera zoomed in a solitary tear rolling down his cheek. Got me all teary-eyed!
Fate of the hometown girls: Shirin's and Louise's designs were good enough to move them ahead to next week.
Winning look: Althea (right) wowed the judges' panel with a sassy, sexy three-piece ensemble (above) featuring a cropped jacket, tank top and short skirt. Hawt! It helped that her model walked the hell out of the runway ... fierce!
Who was Auf'd: AT LAST, Qristyl got the boot. We've been subjected to her unclassy, cheap-looking designs for long enough, and her snippy behavior toward teammate Epperson last week made me wanna get rid of her then.
