Andrew and I celebrated our 3rd anniversary this last Saturday. As huge fans of Top Chef and Food Network, we became familiar with Nyesha Arrington, a southern California chef. Nyesha was one of the selected chefs on Top Chef Texas (Bravo). She was a great chef, but her time on the show came to an early end when she was paired with a disastrous chef who took her down with her. Soon after her departure, Wilshire restaurant reached out to Chef Hunters (Food Network) in search for a new executive chef. As each of the chefs in the competition were introduced, Andrew and I said wait a second, that is Nyesha from Top Chef! Nyesha fought hard in the kitchen and was offered the position at Wilshire. From that time Andrew became a huge fan of her. She proved herself and her talent in the online after competition for dismissed Top Chefs on Last Chance Kitchen and she held her reign for 5 weeks. With all that said Nyesha has proven she is a very talented chef. To celebrate, we decided we would take that trip to Santa Monica, meet Nyesha and taste the food from the chef herself at Wilshire Restaurant.

I'm Obsessed...
"I'm obsessed" is something I often say when I find something new that I can't get enough of it. I am one of those people that will enjoy it over and over again until I am sick.
Recently, a friend brought over desserts when we were hosting a dinner. They were cutest little ice cream cones, first part of my obsession anything mini just gets me. But then biting into the hard chocolate shell and chocolate ice cream brought the biggest smile to my face, probably the best chocolate ice cream I have had in a long time. You still get everything you would in a full sized ice cream cone but you have no guilt, you can't, it is mini, right?
You can find these delicious treats at Trader Joe's in the frozen section, Hold the Cone! Trader Joe's Mini Ice Cream Cones, Chocolate. And if you were wondering just 70 calories (30 from fat)
