Alladin Restaurant

By Dean B. -
227 So the wife and I were in Granville, Ohio yesterday. And in the course of human events, it became time for lunch and we both needed to eat. We were walking along the main drag through town and decided to go into the Aladdin Restaurant on Broadway East. My first reaction was, "Oh, great...another Greasy Spoon." Boy, was I wrong. There isn't much on the menu because they really only serve breakfast and lunch (though I did see "All you can eat Perch" from 4-8). I got a Bacon Cheeseburger and my wife got a Club Sandwich. The grill is right in the dining room and you can see just what the cook is cooking and exactly how fresh it is. And fresh is the key to the whole experience. I watched the cook take a ball of fresh (unfrozen) hamburger, put it on the grill and put a flat-iron on it. And the bacon...oh the bacon. It was cooked to order. It made you even more hungry to just sit there and smell the bacon cooking. The fries were cut fresh that morning. I have never tasted a better burger.

In conclusion...we will be back for breakfast. Reason? Because they fresh cut the veggies in their omelets....to order. Their pancakes are, literally, the size of dinner plates. The breakfast burrito is as big around as my forearm.

All in all, my first reaction was not so great...but it soon changed to that of great delight.

And we've been working hard..... Our "new to us" house is FINALLY empty! And we have been working hard for the past few days on getting it kinda cleaned up. We've have taken a big job under our belts and we're just grabbing roots and growling all the way.                                                                              This is littlest bedroom in the house, its going to be our guest room.  To get it up to snuff its going to need wall, door repairs, new carpet, paint and windows.   This is the upstairs bathroom. Don't you just love our harvest gold bathtub? In order to hide the hideous, I'm going to paint the walls a golden yellow.  To get it looking better it needs, new flooring, vanity, mirror, and paint.    This is going to be our room....

Soup its Whats for Supper !

By -
Since I was a little girl I have always loved Olive Garden. Mainly all you can eat soup, bread sticks and salad. Ok, ok, nix the salad in that. I love soup and bread sticks!  When they came out with Zuppa Tuscana not only was I in love with it but my whole family was. We have been known to sit and analyze our bowls of soup to try and figure out what makes it the best.  I never tried to make it until after I married Dean. My first try I followed a copy-cat recipe. It was ok but it wasn't "IT".   While cruising along the produce department of the grocery store I decided to try and make Zuppa again. I'm so glad I did.  But this time I didn't use a recipe. I used my taste buds and memory of what it should taste like.  It was so close to having the actual stuff that in a blind taste test it would have been very,very close.  Along with the soup I set the bread machine out to mix up some dough for bread sticks. They turned out great as well. The recipe for...
