PAT'S vs GENO'S… the CHEESESTEAK CHALLENGE

So one of the many things on my "MUST DO" list in Philadelphia was to settle it once and for all and see who really has the best cheesesteak, Pat's or Geno's. So this was the set up, me and the Mr set out to settle the score and he got a cheesesteak from Geno's and I got one from Pat's. We took them to Love park to do our research. We split our sandwiches in half and dug in. So here are the results. The Mr thinks that Pat's has better bread… I disagree, I am a fan of the chewier bread from Geno's. We both agree that the inside (steak, peppers, onions and cheese… not wiz, but American…couldn't really get with the thought of cheese whiz) was better at Geno's, BUT I must admit… the best cheesesteak that I had in Philly came from the Phillies ballpark after the Brewers vs Phillies game. Maybe my experience would have been different if we ate our sandwiches as soon as we got them, or if we got cheese whiz instead of american cheese but as it stands, the next time I'm in Philly, my cheesesteak will come from Citizens Bank Park.

Beat the Bloat, with Jillian Michaels Detox Tea


Loving this article from my fellow Brewers Beauty. Trying this tea TODAY!

Beat the Bloat, with Jillian Michaels Detox Tea


shoppingThe first time I heard of Dandelion tea, I was 17 and I was watching Dr. Oz. with my Dad. They were talking about how Dandelion Tea could reduce inflammation, aid in digestion, and shred water weight. My dad, convinced, went to the grocery store and bought three boxes. When he got home he brewed us each a cup of dark, odd smelling, hot liquid. Honestly, It was terrible. I remember thinking it tasted just as I imagined dirt would taste like.  I couldn’t take another sip.
Years later, I was reading in Womens Health about a last minute diet by Jillian Michaels. It surprisingly included Dandelion Tea in her version of ‘Detox Tea’. I decided to give it another try and purchased my own stash of Dandelion Tea. This recipe seemed to bridge the gap between dirt and human food and I didn’t mind it. Plus, it worked and I became a believer. (Notice she includes Cranberry Juice!)
The only thing I don’t suggest is drinking a cup before a six hour road trip–We basically had to stop every half hour.
