Food Show

Posted by ChroniclesCapersCanards on 6:51 AM
During the month of February, I went with my aunt to a food show in New York at the Javits Center. We saw lots of different things there and got to try a good amount of the food there as well. They had everything from Corned beef sandwiches to fresh squeezed orange juice from juicers. The food there was quite amazing and smelled very good. The only thing that I found unappetizing were these little appetizer cups that were made with shortening and left a film on the inside of my mouth that tasted and felt nasty. One thing that didn't surprise me by just seeing it there, but in fact the taste, was all the organic foods. They had lots of stuff like wheat-grass drinks, fresh fruit juices, and even special kinds of water with charts showing you how their water was improved in taste and quality than those of other brands such as Poland Spring.

Easter Dinner

Posted by ChroniclesCapersCanards on 6:57 AM

For my Easter dinner we had roasted ham and turkey it was delicious. I love 
Easter because it's basically a second thanksgiving we always have a huge feast 
with the family. This year we stayed over my aunts house who is in Newburyport, 
Massachusetts. We come up here every year for thanksgiving and Easter, and I 
always leave a few pounds heavier. I helped prepare the meal also by helping 
with the mashed potatoes and and cooking green beans. I also helped make the 
gravy and helped bake some of the desert treats for after. For our dessert we 
took out our colored eggs, had brownies with nuts, and had homemade cup cakes 
with frosting in the shape of bunnies, and eggs.

Wendys

Since I never get fed by Ed or Tammy I had to take myself out for a nice dinner with my brother steve so we decided to go to Wendys. Most people would have chosen the regular Mcdonalds or Burger King, but no. Me and Steve wanted to go to wendys. If you ask me it was a bold decision. But it turned out to be the best decision of my life. It was like eating at figs with a lot smaller price.I got a juicy double cheeseburger with a medium frie and a diet soda. It was the best burger I have ever had in my life. It was way more satisfying then beating Chris in a game of Fifa. When I got home I also decided to make myself a bowl of cereal. Now it wasn’t any boring cereal. I had cookie crisp. If you don’t know what cookie crisp is then your weak sauce. This is a cereal that is supposed to be like mini cookies in milk and was a great way to top off a wendys meal.

A typical New York day

Posted by ChroniclesCapersCanards on 8:54 AM
The past weekend I went to New York City and experienced a variety of smells and aromas. I traveled the city with my friends and tried multiple food carts. Nuts for nuts was one of my favorites and of course I had a soft pretzel or two. But the real treat of the trip was wandering around until we came upon a small burger shop called "burger heaven" from the street location you wouldn't expect anything fancy however upon walking in you wouldn't be disappointed the least bit. It was like a old classic drive in diner and had a bar and stools and stainless steel everywhere. It was a nice little place and of course my first instinct upon looking at the menu was to go right for the burger section of it. I decided to get a bacon cheeseburger with French fries and a coke, a pretty classic meal. By the time the food came out my mouth was watering and the looks of the burger sure did not disappoint, it was cooked to perfection an my fries were amazing I would highly recommend it . The service was also great we got a young kid around my age who was nice and friendly. A random day in the city turned out to be a great one and I found a great restaurant I'm sure ill be eating at again. It just goes to show you never know what you might find in the streets of New York. Also I have the business card and address for next time!

Thoughts behind pasta dishes

Posted by ChroniclesCapersCanards on 6:09 PM
    As I cook by myself more and more often, I have come to see that the easiest and most versatile food to create is pasta. The act of making the pasta is very easy (assuming you buy pre cut pasta) which is very nice, but then the fact that you can put any sort of sauce on top, and change the entire dish is really amazing. You can go from a very healthy pasta dish, with a pesto sauce, and then you can go in the complete opposite direction and make a creamy alfredo sauce and pile on the cream.
    The bad thing about making pasta though, is that I am limited to ingredients that are in my house. Normally that would be fine, but I have found that I end up doing the same sauce every time. Currently I have been making an oil sauce with just onions, garlic and mushrooms. It’s really simple, and I really need to branch out and try new things.
    I think the next kind of pasta dish I would like to make would be some sort of creamy spinach sauce. I remember when I visited my Uncle, he made me something similar to that with pignoli nuts. It was in all honesty one of the best things I had ever tasted, and I would really like to try and recreate it. Maybe I can mimic what he did, and possibly make it better.

My lunch at Maggie McFly’s

Posted by ChroniclesCapersCanards on 8:17 AM
My lunch at Maggie McFly’s I had lunch at Maggie McFly’s with my family. The restaurant was in Southbury. I had cheeseburger sliders and French fries. There were 4 sliders with ketchup, bacon and American cheese. The French fries were steak fries. I ordered a special Spongebob drink. It was a banana flavored milkshake. The burgers were just right, the fries were a little soggy and the milkshake was awesome. The milkshake was served in a sundae glass. It had a seedless maraschino cherry on top and a caramel drizzle. My lunch was very good and I would order it again. Jamie B.
