For Easter, in our house it is customary to serve lamb. For years, my mother has been making the leg of lamb in the oven with Seagrams and garlic. Well, for at least 3 years, she has managed to blow the oven door completely off from the massive explosion from the alcohol. It was quite a sight. So 3 oven doors and a new kitchen later, the parents have decided to try a new way of cooking the lamb, grill it baby! It is sooooooo freaking good! We had tons of left overs and as I was stuffing my face…
Scarpetta
0For months, my husband and I have been dying to dine at Scarpetta in the Fontainebleau Hotel down in SoBe. We have literally been planning it for months and finally decided to go on my 30th birthday. Clearly we are huge fans of “Chopped” so of course we had to try famed Chef Scott Conant’s restaurant since it is practically in our back yard. It was the most awesomely delicious night EVER! The restaurant was extremely posh, I mean, only the best for the Fontainebleau right? We sipped on cocktails, delicious homemade bread with mascarpone whipped butter and homemade caponata….
Sippin’ on Some Weight-orade
0Was on quite the hiatus but now I am back! I have been extremely tired, unmotivated and just BLEH all day, every day. I need to do something. Exercise? Yeah, maybe. Eating better? Definitely. Both are a good start. I was on Pinterest, aka the greatest site ever, looking for some alcoholic drinks for the weekend and I came across a pin about a weight-orade from Dr. Oz. I’m not one to be on fad diets or even to diet. I firmly believe in eating well and exercise is the right way to go if you want to lose weight…
iPad…What is it good for?
0Absolutely Nothin’! We are a 1 computer family. I know, completely unheard of in this day and age. But we are, and when your husband takes the laptop on a business trip you are completely lost. Alas, he left the iPad in pity. I thought I would be saved considering I also have an iPhone but was sorely mistaken. Have you ever tried writing posts or emails on an iPad? It’s kind of a pain in the ass. When ever I would try to move the cursor on the iPad, it ended up in the middle of the paragraph…
I Hate You, Ugly Toy Pile.
0I don’t know what it is, maybe it’s the fact I’ve been gone all weekend and away from my house or that it’s freaking Monday, but I hate everything today. I woke up, looked around my room and wanted to vomit. I walked past the laundry room and saw the over flowing dirty clothes bin. Ew. I immediately slammed the door shut so I never have to see it again. Then I walk downstairs and spot this: An ugly,disorganized pile of toys. I thought that wicker basket was the best idea back when I bought it on one of my…
