Food for all Those Hungry Stars at The Golden Globes.

As I was watching the Golden Globes I saw Julia Louis-Dreyfus eating a hot dog and thought what the hell, a hot dog?  So I looked it up and this is what they are really eating. From CBS NEWS:


First of all plenty of alcohol. Fact Golden Globes is the only award show where guest get drinks. 

It starts off with an appetizer trio of grilled eggplant with sundried tomato and pine nut hummus on seared tomato; mini sweet pepper with feta cheese, pomegranate, herbs and California olive oil on grilled pita; and grilled artichoke on multigrain tabbouleh and tahini.
Mediterranean spice-crusted braised beef short rib and sauteed smoked filet of Atlantic sea trout are on the menu for the entree, with spinach sweet corn ragout and light cream of tomato dill sauce. And after dinner comes a mango dessert on almond sponge cake with creme anglaise.

QUIRKY

Back in September, I caught an episode of the Jay Leno Show and saw this ingenious company called Quirky and was amazed.  I had to check the company out for myself and was even more amazed so I joined and started influencing new ideas.  Here is the video.




One of the products I thought was so cool is the Egg Minder dubbed "THE SMART EGG TRAY". Have you ever been at a grocery store and was not sure how many eggs you have?  Well that is the thing of the past this baby links up with your smart phone and lets you know how many you have and how old they are.  I know that I have had that very problem. Go check that company out. And there is a bonus you can actually earn some money by influencing ideas, check out my profile on Quirky.

Paleo Diet Eat and Avoid

Ever since I started this new career in the professional truck driving field I haven't been able to drink alcohol in fact I went without alcohol for just 46 days.

Now that I am a truck driving I realized that this my be the perfect diet or health plan for me. I am now going to start down this path so here is what I should eat and avoid.
