Lara cooks AGAIN. Veggie goat cheese omelet. Try it, you’ll like it!

Can you believe it?  Hey, times will change once this CEO gets out of the house office and into the office office.  But for NOW…lunch is cooking.  Sometimes.

A truly Bloomingdales Christmas

So, it is my most favorite time of year to go to Bloomingdales, because it is there, without guilt, I am truly able to enjoy the most wonderful X-mas decorations in the city.  And, since they also have the best Hanukah candles anywhere (beeswax and all that), I make it a tradition to go, once a year with Bella to enjoy the festivities.  But, this year, since Bella had LOADS AND LOADS of homework (or she just didn’t feel this was any longer a cool think to be doing), I made my annual trek with my friend Tina.

So we get …

7 foods experts say can kill you

OK, I’ve reprinted this from Prevention, but HELL, this is scary. It’s like, too late for me, but perhaps those of you who have never eaten tomatoes, potatos um, even nuked popcorn (well we already knew about that) and well, other foods on this list, perhaps it’s not TOO LATE!!

Inspired flounder- Lara’s cooked twice this week. Low cal, low fat.

Yes, it’s true. Twice in one week– I actually cooked dinner and Bella actually liked it. And you must, MUST get this Balsamic Vinegar Glaze. There is NOTHING like it. Trouble is, I got it at the Fancy Food show in NY and have no idea where it’s sold. But, on the other hand, the fish is still good without it… just not as special.

Ok, so here’s the recipe –shocked are we? (make sure you add garlic to butter and brown slightly. I left it out of the recipe …

First ever Lara Dean recipe: Low cal– and so good… go figure.

You can add any veggies you want or take them out, but I find that this is the perfect blend of sweet and sour, protein and fiber! And no, those little brown things are not bugs…they are raisins.  I guess CEO’s  have more time on their hands than  I thought.

Even I hate this reporter

Do you really care about the White House breech that much Ms. Ryan?  I mean jeez.  Be a good reporter.  Perez Hilton already has the gossip theories covered.

Liar Tiger, pants on fire

Does anyone really care that Tiger committed, um, transgressions?  Does anyone really care that his $1billion (yes, I said $1 billion) sponsor deals may drop right down into la toilette?   The only one I care about is his, well, no one.  In my opinion, if this country didn’t make such a big deal about infidelity, 911 would never have happened.  Yes, while DC impeached, the Republicans preached, and our country was breached by the terrorists.  So, this should be another lesson to us.   Or to you.  Is life so boring that we need to follow the transgressions of …well, anyone?  What say you?
