Tid-Bite: Mini Nutella Cheesecake Tart from Gindi Cafe

We got a selection of desserts from Gindi Cafe in Boulder this afternoon and by far my favorite was the mini Nutella cheesecake tart. The thick layer of cheesecake-flavored custard floating over a dense chocolate and hazelnut filling was so rich, you don’t need more than a mini to be completely satisfied!

There’s something undeniably romantic and iconic about taking a few turns around a frozen pond with someone you love. Lucky for you, the outdoor skating rinks in Downtown Louisville and at the Village at Flatirons Crossing have extended their season through the end of the month.

So strap on a pair of skates and pull on a pair of mittens and get ready for lots of romantic hand-holding, nose nuzzling and laughter — hopefully followed by a warm beverage (and possibly and ice pack of your own).

S.M.A.R.T Goals for Weight Loss and Life

weight gainDid last year’s New Year’s Resolutions end up again on this year’s list?
You’re not alone as this is so common.

The problem is that the best intentioned resolution or intent for change is bound to fail without a well designed goal, action plan and support network.

So what should you do if you really want to lose weight in 2010, and not 2011 or 2012? Read on as with S.M.A.R.T Goals and a few other simple tips you will be able to transform this year’s aspirations into reality.

Tid-Bites: Park Burger, Denver

My friend Hannah and her husband are my go-to excuse for trying new restaurants in Denver. If I don’t really have an excuse to be down there, but want to try a new place, I’ll call them up and ask them to dinner!

So it was, Saturday night, that we found ourselves at Park Burger on Old South Pearl. Crowded with Wash Park hipsters and their trendy kids, we had to wait a while for a table to open up in the tiny restaurant, but once the food came, it was clear this was worth the wait. Hannah and I had killer straight up Park Burgers with cheddar that were perfectly cooked, juicy and basically to die for. Don’t forgo the burger sauce, no matter what your previous experiences with “special sauce” have taught you.

Our husbands were more daring, hers ordering the BBQ burger, smothered in sauce and haystack fries, and mine ordering the Frenchie with—get this—ham and brie. Bye bye American cheese; my husband may never order you on a burger again!

Between us, we shared two gargantuan baskets of fries (one regular, one sweet potato, natch) and couldn’t quite polish them off. I also had a chocolate malt, which was awesome, and induced Hannah and her beau to order milkshakes to go.

Make an excuse. Park Burger is an awesome stop.

Contest Winner at Telluride Blues and Brews

Reader mail:

A few weeks ago I answered one of your lunchtime giveaways for tickets to the Blues and Brews Festival in Telluride. I just wanted to say thank you! While the tickets to the festival were free, renting the car, condo and other travel expenses grew to be quite a healthy bill, but well worth it for the family memories. Winning the tickets prompted an impromptu family vacation. We made lots of memories and took lots of great photos with the beautiful scenery. So again Thank you for the memories!
