Inspired by Food

I was doing some research for an article today, and I came across a fabulous blog about eating in Calgary. It has beautiful photos, colourful descriptions and ratings for each restaurant visited. Check it out!

Things I Love Now

1. Banana squash - I picked some up at my local Superstore. It was already pre-cut, so all I had to do was cut off the skin and dice it. I tossed the cubes onto a cookie sheet and drizzled on some olive oil, salt and pepper, and steak spice. After about 15 minutes in a 400-degree oven, they were nicely browned. They tasted sweet and savory at the same time -- kind of like eating yam fries. Yum-o.
   
2. Gossip Girl - One of CW's newest dramas, often called the "new OC." Based on a novel series, Gossip Girl delves into the lives of spoiled rich kids in upper East Manhattan. While I didn't have high expectations for this show, I was pleasantly surprised. The dialogue is fast, vicious and smart. The soundtrack is great, and you can't help but love the sheer cattiness of it all.
