Chicago, and the one thing I have yet to really do there


Much of my childhood was riddled with trips from St. Louis to suburban Chicago. Every once in a while, my cousins would take me into the city to see sights and hang out, maybe even go to a Cubs game or a White Sox game. I've done the sights, I've done the shopping. However, almost tragically, I haven't eaten everywhere I want to eat in Chicago. I haven't and I will no longer stand for it!

So here's my proposition to anyone willing to join. I want you to join me in some eating. All over the Chicagoland area. I want to try Chicago-style pizza that I actually like. I want to eat at Blackbird, Silver Palm, Chicago Chop House, The Signature Room at the 95th, to name a few. You wanna come? I want you to come. I might even pay.

    I have eaten at very few places in Chicago. Once I had some really great pizza and some Italian, but that's about it. Definitely tragic.

    P.S. Of course we can do coffee. I'm just taking a hiatus from online stuff ;)

Gluten Free Happiness!

Just because you may be on some restricted diet, doesn't mean that you're no longer entitled to good food and happy thoughts during this Thanksgiving season! So, here's a recipe that's not only gluten-free, but also vegan. You may have seen this recipe somewhere before. It's either because it's not really that unique, or because I've created this specific variation for a client. Pecan-Rolled Sweet Potato Balls 4 big sweet potatoes 2 tablespoons vegan "butter" 1 teaspoon fine sea salt 1 pinch freshly grated nutmeg 1 pinch fresh ground cinnamon 3 tablespoons real maple syrup 1 tablespoon orange juice cooking spray (Pam works just fine!) 1 1/2 cups pecans, toasted and crushed Ok, so: Clean the sweet potatoes of any excess dirt. Then bake them at 350°F for an hour or until soft. Once soft, set aside until cool enough to handle. When cool, cut the potatoes lengthwise, in half, and scoop the flesh out of the skin into a mixing bowl. Toss the skins in

*Guest Post!!!*  Hey guys! I’m Alysia a healthy living blogger over at Slim Sanity . At my site, you’ll find healthy recipes and snack ideas, along with some of the workouts that I complete day to day. Thanks to Bijoy, I get to share a great new dinner recipe with you all today! The dinners I make ordinarily revolve around a protein dish, paired with some kind of vegetable. Unless I’m planning on a long run the next day, veggies are the only carbs I serve. Not to say that grain carbohydrates are bad. In fact, they show up in my breakfast and lunches quite frequently. This is just a diet that I typically follow, because it works for me! Today’s recipe is for turkey cutlets, along with a side of seasoned steamed broccoli. It’s by far the best turkey cutlet recipe I’ve ever tasted. Ingredients: 4 turkey cutlets, tenderized 2 tablespoons horseradish     2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard 1 tablespoon brown sugar 1 cup black beans   ½ teaspoon garlic salt   ½ teaspoon c
