Menupages

Ever find yourself wishing you had a menu for a particular restaurant? Ever wish you could find out which restaurants in your neighborhood deliver? Or are open late? Or have a particular dish you are craving?

I have news for you. Well, hopefully this isn't news because it's been around for quite a while...but I have been discovering that not as many people as I had expected new about this handy little resource: http://philadelphia.menupages.com/


At menupages, you can literally find the menu and information for ANY restaurant in Philly. Utilize this little gem and your stack of menus hanging around the house will soon find their way in the recycling bin!

CAT VS. WILD

I thought I would share a series of photos that you may find humorous. I know I did. (Series taken by CCC)

Cat sees bug.

Cat sniffs bug. Just to make sure its a, you know...bug.


Cat mentally prepares himself for attack. Claws? Teeth? A lot of decisions being made here.

Cat goes in for the kill! Turns out bug has wings! Cat is confused and bug is the victor!

Cat punches wall in frustration. Wings! Who would have thought?

(I need to add that "cat" is actually the craziest yet cutest cat I know - his name is Jesse & belongs to my very lovely friend Lana. Thank you Lana for letting me exploit your cat for the good of the internet. Jesse is really the best.)

Better than Kraft.


(Photos taken by CCC)

So my friend Danny & I decided to make baked macaroni & cheese this weekend. It turned out to be one of the best decisions I have made in a long time. Despite Whole Foods keeping a packed lot and store on the weekend, we put together this delicious meal - and even made enough for lunch leftovers.

I'm going to recommend the recipe we used to everyone but with advice to follow our improvised add-ons: mushrooms & vegetarian sausage. We could have cooked the bread crumbs more, but it really didn't make too much of a difference.


Perfect with baby spinach salad w/ olive oil & vinegar!
