The Perfect Wedding Gift

Need the perfect wedding gift, but on a budget?

I did and I was! I needed a gift that was going to be meaningful, something the bride and groom would keep and always remember...but I was definitely on a budget. I work for a non-profit, and welllllll lets just say...I am no millionaire!

I saw this idea on Pinterest and thought this is perfect! I bought an Atlas and got to work. I cut out the three cities that meant the most to the bride & groom, Nappa Valley (where they got engaged), San Diego (where they live) and Laguna Beach (where they got married).

I think this is the perfect gift for anyone who wants to get a meaningful wedding present but is unable to spend a fortune! Oh and everyone loved it!!

Grilled Bruschetta Chicken

We are trying to get in some last minute grilling, as well as tomatodishes while the weather is still nice and the tomatoes are still in season. Here is a perfect recipe that includes both.

Ingredients

4-5 chicken breasts

2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar

2 Tbsp olive oil

1/4 c onion, chopped

salt & pepper to taste

2 cloves of garlic, minced

3-4 Tbsp fresh basil, chopped
3 small to medium sized tomatoes, chopped
4 oz mozzarella, cubed

Combine chopped onion, olive oil, balsamic, salt and pepper, chopped tomatoes, garlic and basil in a bowl and set aside while you prepare and grill the chicken.

Season chicken with salt and pepper, and grill about 5 minutes on each side, until no longer pink in the middle.

Add the diced mozzarella to the tomato mixture and scoop on top of the chicken, making sure to get some juice on there.

That's it! Easy smeasy, and oh so delicious!

Missoni Fail

Today is the day, Missoni hits a Target near you

However the website crashed numerous times so we made a trip to the store over lunch...



and nothing...

Hope others had better luck than we did...and if not think of it this way-

We won't have an awkward run-in with someone wearing the same recognizable multi-colored zig zag shoes, shirt, sweater, skirt, dress, boots, hat, scarf, swim suit or jacket.

We Remember

Hope you took some time yesterday to remember those who lost their lives, and to think about those who lost loved ones, as well as the heroes who risked their lives, in the tragic attack in New York City ten years ago.

Here is an amazing shot from Arrowhead Stadium yesterday, as players, fire fighters, cheerleaders, and soldiers held a field-length flag. The National Anthem was followed by a fly over and fireworks. There was an amazing feeling of American pride and spirit throughout that stadium yesterday, and I am so glad I got to be a part of it. Unfortunately The Chiefs got slaughtered, but it was a great turnout and a great 9-11 tribute.
