Thankful for Escaping to the City!!

Ok...that's it!! I HAVE to get out of this house! hahaha

For my Dad's birthday, we had made reservations for the wonderful Morimoto restaurant in Philadelphia to celebrate. However, with this awful snowstorm (or two or three) we weren't sure if we were going to make it down there. However, I have made an executive decision and we are GOING:o)  A great big thank you to Septa for keeping those trains running to and from the city! I heart you!

For those of you who aren't familiar with Morimoto, he won several challenges on the Food Network's Iron Chef show. He's amazing. Incredible actually. This man can COOK! He teamed up with Steven Starr and opened up one of his own restaurants that are now located in both Philadelphia and NYC.

My favorite is are his sushi creations:

Now normally, I'm a California roll kind of girl (boring, I KNOW). But tonight I'll be trying just about anything with the exception of caviar, roe and eel. I just can't do it. Maybe if I wash it down with some sake...

So I hope you are all enjoying the snow and watching it melt away because the beautiful sun has finally come out to play:o)

Today is Thursday and I would be blogging about "Thankful Thursdays" however...the only thing that i'm thankful for today is that I will be out and about...FINALLY!

Happy Thursday everyone! xo
