Roasted Romaine Salad

May 30, 2014

0 Comments


Salads definitely came into their own within the past year or so, going from a bunch of wilted lettuce with a blob of dressing to composed and thoughtful dishes. But composed and thoughtful doesn't necessarily mean complex. This roasted romaine is a step above that tired old salad but takes little time to prepare and has few ingredients. It's simple while still big on flavor.

Ingredients:

  • 1 head of romaine lettuce
  • 3 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp. grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste

​Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  2. Using a sharp knife, split the romaine lettuce down the middle. Lay it on the baking sheet. Take one tablespoon of olive oil and drizzle it over top of the two halves of romaine.
  3. Roast in the oven for 10 minutes until the romaine has wilted a bit and is starting to brown.
  4. Before serving, prepare your dressing. Combine remaining two tablespoons of olive oil and one tablespoon of balsamic vinegar and mix well to combine. Drizzle over top of the two halves of romaine.
  5. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and salt and pepper to taste.

The Invasion of the Brit Tabloid

October 22, 2020

I just read an article that sounded – to me at least – like “a canary in a coal mine” or an early warning of danger. This piece, written by Joe Pompeo, appeared in the May 2020 issue of Vanity Fair magazine with the title “The British Tabloid Invasion” and a subtitle that read, “How the Daily Mail is conquering American gossip.”

Apparently the good old U.S. is a nation of “not great” sleepers. Really? And I thought I was the only one! According to a recent study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention it was revealed that one out of three Americans are chronically sleep-deprived. Yikes!

Magical Hermès

October 06, 2020

I think we’re all taken by the incredible mystique of the famous French fashion house, Hermès that has been with us for two centuries and is still owned and operated by the same family. From its beginnings in fine equestrian leather goods, they are – in the tumultuous year 2020 – best known for their handbags and many other items.

My image of Hermès has always been rarified products at equally rarified prices so imagine my surprise when I recently received a very stylish publication of theirs in the mail.

We use Italian lingerie sizing  for our bodywear and items tend to run small.

Because of the body-hugging nature of the fabric and our body conscious fit most women prefer to wear our layering tops as under-layers. If you are inclined to wear them on their own we suggest you size up. Please contact us. We're happy to help you get it right.
