Comfort Food When You're Sick!

:( sniffles

The reason why I haven't updated much is because I'm sick. grr!! But the few things that make me feel better are #1 my mom's porridge and #2 oatmeal mixed with condensed milk. It's soo good! It instantly makes me feel a little better :)

Do you guys have any type of food that gives you comfort when sick??

A Taste of Greece

I'm back everyone! It's been a little over a week since I've updated, but I'm back on track now! Recently I went to one of my FAVORITE restaurants in Watertown, MA. I love Greek food and I love love love this restaurant!

It's called: The Aegean

640 Arsenal Street
Watertown, MA 02472
617-923-7771

www.aegeanrestaurants.com

My all time FAVORITE dish to get is the Rack of Lamb:


lightly seasoned with a garlic, pepper, olive oil sauce, cooked medium with a pink center. Definitely mouth watering!!

It comes with a side of Greek Salad


and your choice of french fries, roasted potatoes, and rice.



If you want amazing Greek food, please check this place out!! I'm trying to decide between going to Greece or Thailand this summer, and food may just be the deciding factor! So if you know any AMAZING Thai Restaurants that will make my tastebuds jump, let me know!

There's nothing like Grandma's Cooking!!

My friend Jojo told me that I should update, so that's what I'm doing!

So the other day my grandma surprised me by making my favorite dumplings! SOO DELICIOUS!!! I know everyone always says that their grandma is the best cook etc etc...but MINE REALLY IS!! <3 This is the real deal guys. It does not get any better than this!


I like eating them with Worcestershire sauce


OR

I have them with soup!!


:'( I wish I didn't finish them all...I want some more!

Anyways, I thought I'd let all you readers out there know that I won't be updating for a couple of days. I'll be in Maine till Thursday.

...until then: Remember Happy Tastebuds = A Happy Heart!

LOVE AFFAIR WITH TEA!!!

Hi Everyone!! I was so excited about this, I had to blog twice in one day!! :P

She made me a cup earlier tonight and I swear she has a built in timer in her brain! She lets the tea steep for EXACTLY 2mins and BAM! she knew when it was ready seconds before the timer went off! ANYWAYS...if you live in Providence, RI or if you're visiting the Providence Mall, PLEASE stop in and get yourself some tea!!

Here's what she got me:
