I love my son TJ...He let's me know that is time to quit working on the cookbook and blog by literally pulling the plug on my project. I did not know where to find the saved drafts so I freaked out a tiny bit...we're good now :-)
So, I am getting to the point by giving you an update:
The cookbook editing is 1/2 the way done and I am looking for printing houses. I have narrowed the serach down to two. Remember to complete what you love my friends!
Ok so tonight we are getting creative!
Cooking Theme TIP:
Basically, I am suggesting that you use an inspirational restaurant to boost your boredom in the kitchen!
Not too long ago my family and I visited Chima's a Brazillian steak house you may have heard of. Another we have here
in Philadelphia is Fogo de Chao these two are chains but great to visit if you love buckets of meat. If you are bummed out because you want to hangout and your funds are insufficient, switch up your spot. Use candles and nice fabric...may rearrange your furniture to create a cool vibe for your themed meal.
For a Brazillian steak house theme at home;
- Grab some metal skewers and small plates
- Use maybe three different meats (lamb, chicken, beef, pork, veal...etc)
- Create some various marinades from your favorite, vinaigrettes, dressings, herbs, spices and wines.
- Grill or broil your meats, high heat and marinating will result in a nice dish.
- Create an antipasto dish of various cold cuts, cheeses, olives and peppers
- Serve your guests, wine and beer from a couple of different regions
- Play your favorite music, maybe videos set on mute for mood an voila!
Me doing the blog and editing tonight! Note my babies reading, even TJ on the left :-)
PLEASE BY ALL MEANS SUPPORT RESTAURANTS ESPECIALLY LOCAL ONES. THEY ARE GOING OUT OF BUSINESS FAST. BY GOING OUT AND PATRONIZING THESE BUSINESSES, IT ASSISTS IN REBUILDING THE ECONOMY...SUPPORT PASSION!!!
Thanks my Dollies!!!!
