LuLu's Noodles & The Carnegie Museum

By -

We had a perfectly beautiful Sunday, as pretty as it could get for being a cold, grey,  non-stop rainy day in Pittsburgh. It was a museum day. After church at St. Paul's Cathedral, we went to Lulu's Noodles for lunch, a Pittsburgh and Rieker family favorite. Anna wanted to have her luncheon reception for her first communion there. Even I didn't think that was such a great idea considering the Polish, Irish, German family majority. That's how much we like it though. Anna and I love to go for soup and Pad Thai, Rieker likes the General Tso's. As usual, the food was amazing. We then walked to the Carnegie Museum to hang out for a few hours. I had to encourage rieker at the restaurant not to stuff himself into nap mode. I took the picture of the statue as proof of where matty got what I thought was his "patented" dance move, little did I know where he got his inspiration! I liked my outfit, but for some reason, left my raincoat on in the restaurant to ward off the damp chill so you can't see it; and I even had rieker there to take my picture :(

    hey, why haven't you taken us to lulu's? what a fun sounding day. i was thinking how nice it would be to go to cummer art gallery one day with the boys. now that they have renovated the area we could probably do this too. they have more than krystal's now.

Matty & jayne's new marble dining table. Look how pretty the table is! Matty grilled the italian bread and brie on his charcoal grill. Unbelievably delicious. Jayne's cupcakes taunted me all night long. The salad, believe it or not, was just as good as the cupcakes. Tommy and his new sous chef jayne. I was fired. Jayne set a gorgeous table. The star of the show, tommy's chicken piccata. Oh yeah! yummo!

Chicken Carbonara Alfredo with Broccoli

By -
I roasted a whole chicken a few nights ago. I stuffed a couple of lemons and garlic cloves up it's bum and rubbed it with poultry seasoning. I made giblet gravy with the giblits, liver and a few hard boiled eggs too. The gravy was my favorite part. I shredded the leftover chicken tonite and used the creamy alfredo sauce packet that was in my cabinet. I threw in some bacon crumbles I keep in my freezer and some sliced mushrooms from Trader Joe's. I boiled some broccoli florets (on sale @ giant eagle) in the same sauce pan I later threw in some angel hair pasta. Dinner was made in less than 15 minutes!!! and cheap. So cheap.

Our first test glaze fire without Walt. Looks okay, right? Rieker had to take pictures of the Mesa Creative Arts Center in Burgettstown, PA for their annual soltice celebration.They celebrate the first day of summer and hold a special Native American ceremony in their Medicine Wheel. It was pretty cool.
