Arayes

We all know there are smells and sounds that take us back to a certain place or time. The minute a particular song makes it through your shuffle lineup, you’re transported back to a place, a person, an event. It’s either a good memory, or one you want to pretend never happened [in which case you next that song like it’s nobody’s business]. Or you’re walking through the mall, or outside and all of a sudden you catch the scent of perfume, or cigarette smoke, or even home cooking and someone, something, some place pops right into your mind.

Rueben Sandwich

Reuben

When I was in grad school, up at Syracuse University, my mom came to visit a handful of times. She helped me move in, she cheered me on at graduation and she helped me move out. Each one of her visits were not complete without a lunch trip to Faegan’s, a family owned Irish pub at the corner of the University’s Marshall Square. Why? Because the first time we went there, mom ordered the Reuben and fell in love with the sandwich. To this day—6 years later—she’s still talking about the Reuben at Feagan’s. For anyone who’s visiting Syracuse and wants to try it out, yes, it’s still on the menu. (more…)

With Love, Sunny-Side Up Eggs

 

Yesterday, I took a much needed day off work – well, half day off since I had a couple calls and some papers in the morning. It made all the difference, nonetheless. I was able to get out to the store a buy a couple new dishes and serveware, oh and a steamer for my Tayta.

This morning, I woke up refreshed and ready to face they day – or more like face the hundreds of dollars I need to cough up for servicing my car – aka overcharging me for opening the cap to the coolant and flushing the system out because somehow in one year my coolant has turned to “sludge.” That’s not going to bring my mood down today. Today, I started my day with a little bit of Sunny-Side Up Egg Sandwich love.

Heart-Shaped Sunny-Side Up Eggs

Ingredients

1 Egg
Olive Oil Spray
Heart-shaped cookie cutter
2 Slices Whole Wheat Bread 
 


 

Directions

Spray your frying pan with olive oil spray, and place the cookie cutter inside. Crack the egg and ease it into the cookie cutter. It might seep a little, but that’s okay.

In the meantime, toast the bread (it’s easier to cut that way).

Use the cookie cutter to cut the bread into heart shapes.

Once the egg is finished, remove carefully with tongs and use a butter knife to ease the egg out.

Serve.
