Is the World Ending?

mgm.jpgFor the past two days it has been sprinkling non-stop. All roads are flooded (we’re talking FEET of water!). Who was the genius that decided LV roadways don’t need drainage sewers. Hellow?! And this morning as I was coming home from work the sky was bright emerald green. Picture The Wizard of Oz. I was totally freaking out–certain that we were about to be wiped off the face of the earth by a monsoon caliber tornado. Then I realized that it was just the light from the MGM grand reflecting off the water in the clouds that was making everything green. It was still really weird though. And this rain isn’t exactly normal either. What’s going on?

Leche

I love chocolate milk. Stirred, not shaken. No powder please. And ice cold. Oh, yeah babe.

Serious Tastebuds

Kitchen Culture

Here’s something to remember when you’re creating in la cucina:

Clutter Causes Confusion. Confusion Creates Catastrophe.

Avoid clutter to avoid confusion and there will be no catastrophe.

O Olive Oil

I discovered this company at one of the foodie conferences I went to recently. Infused olive oils from California: meyer lemon, blood orange, tahitian lime and ruby grapefruit. I’ve tried the meyer lemon and the blood orange and they were very enjoyable. O also sells imported vinegars which are quite delightful indeed. You can drizzle them over cheese, on salads, use on fish or vegetables, or my favorite: for dipping your homemade bread into…the possibilities are endless. .A fun new way to enjoy oil and vinegar. Hotness!
