Too TOUGH for Christina

As most of you know Christina loves to cook and some might consider her a chef, but today she met her match in the kitchen. discouraged by a few big hits Christina figured a way to fight back and win the war with the Onion.



Christina's kitchen comes equipped with everything. Even Onion fight goggles.



On another note Christina and I went out last night ALONE!!!! we went to this new restaurant called Spazzos. Its an Italian restaurant owned by the Swartzs brothers, for any of you from the Seattle area they also own Daniels broiler and Chandlers crab house. All excellent restaurants. Spazzos lived up to the other restaurants and was fabulous. When we sat down a table next to us had ordered a cheese appetizer that they pour brandy over and lit on fire. Christina saw the awesome fire and said yum. that looks good and ordered some for us. The funny thing was that she never really saw the plate of food, just the fire. While we were waiting for our appetizer i asked Christina if it was going to come with crackers or anything or just a slab of cheese. "Oh it'll come with something I'm sure" she said. It came and this is what it was. Christina made sure I got a picture of it for our blog.


A big blob of cheese. $10 worth. The cheese was excellent and very flavorful. we just thought it was funny that we got a big blob of cheese with nothing else. Another favorite moment last night was when i asked the server to tell me about the Orechetti, which in the description was pasta with shrimp, and broccoli in a broth. His responds was, "its noodles (pause) and shrimp (pause) in a bowl." to save him I told him he sold me on the dish. He then said," did you know today is only my third day" which my responds was " No, I didn't know that" then he realized that was a stupid question and responded by " of course you wouldn't". You might have had to been there to find this funny, but it was hilarious just how things played out. After dinner Christina and I went and saw the harry potter movie.

You gotta love those fancy restaurants. And I especially love those goggles - where can I get me some?
