Be Brave, Believe, and Breath.

     I figured I better make a new blog post, since I haven't blogged since last year....get it? Ha ha. ANYWAYS..

     I was on Tumblr today and came across this little gem. It came from this Tumblr blog I follow called The Quiet Rabbit, and it's filled with cute little positive sayings and quotes. I thought this one was some great food for thought as we venture into this new year. The world moves at such an unbelievable fast pace, and we're all working towards following our dreams and becoming the best person we can be. As we're working to achieve greatness, we just need to remember that all good things take time and we need to remind ourselves to "be brave, believe, and breath."

     Let's make 2014 a year without fear! Wake up each day with the thought that something amazing will happen, and it will! Not to sound like a fortune cookie but, spread positive vibes and love to all those around you and do all things with kindness, and great things will defiantly come your way! Cheers to a new year you guys! XOXO

Chef Delco: Fancy Truffle Pasta

Tonight I surprised my family with a new dish I created on the spur! I just had to share with you all because it was slammin'! I saw this bottle of truffle oil in our pantry and thought ooh fancy! It sounded different and I never cooked with it before, so I decided to be inventive with it!  Estimated total cook time was 30-40 mins.  I created the magical pasta dish as follows: I cooked 1 1/2 cups of chopped fresh mushrooms, 2 shallots chopped long ways and thin, and 1 large clove of fresh garlic in a little less than 1/3 cup of truffle oil in a pan. I cooked the penne as I let the mushrooms and shallots mixture simmer over low heat on the stove to cook through in the truffle oil. After the pasta was cooked I drained it and returned it to the pot with about a table spoon of the starchy water still remaining in the pot. Then I mixed in the mushroom and shallot mixture into the pasta, along with a cup of grated parmesan cheese, and an extra drizzle of the truffle oil.  The f...

Fancy Schmancy Weekend Eats

I have a habit of working my birthday for weeks after the actual day. I don't have just a single birthDAY, I have an unofficial "birth month." Even though I turned 25 the previous weekend, the quarter of a century celebrations continued into this weekend. You're only 25 once. 😇 I love eating food that's visually pleasing as well as pleasing to the taste buds. My family and I went to the Hotel Dupont, which delivered on those standards. We ate in the Green Room, which looked like a room straight out of the Titanic. The room had gigantic chandeliers, larger- than- life velvet curtains, and fresh- cut flowers on every table, all while a pianist plays music while you eat. Two words- fancy schmancy ! It was the height of classy and luxurious, and the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion.  For an appetizer I ordered a glass of champagne...and pan seared sea- scallops with blueberry pureé and cheddar grits...sounds like an odd combo but it was so fresh and...

Justin Timberlake Took Over Philly!!!

This past Wednesday night I went to see Justin Timberlake in concert at the Wells Fargo Center. The 20/20 Experience was definitely a major experience! Timberlake is one if the greatest performing artists of our time, and knows how to entertain and put on an extraordinary show.  He had the entire audience up on their feet, from beginning to end, as he took us through a musical journey. He sang popular hits such as Suit& Tie, Holy Grail, and Drink You Away off his most current album, The 20/20 Experience. He also had us travel back in time and sing along to some of his old classics like Cry Me A River and Sexyback. The theatrics of the show were one of a kind where the stage lifted up as a runway and allowed Justin to float in the air over top of the audience. He was literally right over top of me and my friend which made for amazing pictures! Then he sang a few songs on a little stage set up right in the middle of the audience which was very cool! Over all, Justin Timberla...
