Good Afternoon!

Ever since we were young, our parents would tell us that breakfast is the most important meal of the day.  But what about Brunch? So where did the idea of Brunch come from? The idea emerged in England in the late 19th century. Brunch is just in between breakfast and Lunch, a great time to drink a little alcohol, a boozy brunch on a Sunday morning.

Morning Rush

Good morning guys! If you woke up late today, like I did, and need to grab your daily dose of caffeine, there’s no place better than Dunks. I grew up in New England so, yes, I am a Dunkin’ girl 💁🏻. I quickly got ready and started my day by walking to Dunkin’. On my walk, I had a good feeling that there wouldn’t be a line so maybe I would finally be able to get the donut I’ve been wanting to try. The past few times I’ve gone to Dunkin’ they never had the donut I’ve wanted ☹️. I got to Dunkin’ and there was no line and they didn’t have the donut that I wanted.  So, I ordered my usual iced coffee with Carmel mocha swirl and the purple potion donut!                                                                (Photo by SG) So I guess you could say my day is going alright, despite the fact I woke up late.

Good Morning! Today I will show you how I made pastia. I saw this recipe on ABC's The Chew,  and I had to try out this Italian breakfast dish. The original recipe feeds 10-12 people, so I made it to feed 5-6 people. I also made some other small adjustments. To make the dish, I used the following ingredients: 1/2 pound of linguine 1 pound of turkey bacon 1 yellow onion 6 eggs 1 cup of pecorino romano (grated) 1/4 cup of provolone 1/4 cup of parsley Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese (grated) Directions: Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Boil the linguine 2 minutes longer than package instructions. Saute bacon until cooked through but not crispy for 5 minutes. Cook onions in the same pan with olive oil for about 5 minutes. Crack eggs into a large bowl and whisk them. Add the pecorino romano, provolone and parsley to the eggs. Put the pasta, bacon and onions into a bowl. Stir and then let it cool. Left: Eggs mixed with pecorino romano, provolone and parsley. Right: Lin...
