10 Vintage Facts About: Clara Bow


She was known as the 
"Flapper-par-Excellence" 
or the "The Royal Canadian

so here are more fun facts 
about the 1920s silent film 
star, Clara Bow.

1.] Her idols included Mae 
Murray, Gloria Swanson, and 
Theda Bara.

2.] Clara Bow arrived in 
Hollywood in 1923.

3.] She went to Hollywood by 
way of winning a Beauty 
Contest while she was still in high school.

4.] She failed in the talkies mostly because of her thick 
Brooklyn accent.

In the Kitchen! Parchment Bag Cooking


I needed a healthy, EASY dinner last night.  I've never cooked fish before so I had no idea what to expect, but stuffing all the ingredients in a bag and popping it in the oven seemed like the easiest thing possible so I gave it a try... Everything went really well except for de-boning the salmon... I accidentally bought a whole half-salmon.  I recommend you buy a filet from the butcher at your grocery.

Here's what you'll need:
Filet of Salmon
Vegetables (asparagus, zucchini, onions, carrots, etc..)
Herbs (dill, thyme, rosemary)
Italian Parsley
Lemon
Garlic
Olive Oil
Coarse Salt & Black Pepper
White Wine (dry is better)
1 Parchment Bag

Minus the de-boning (which I would not recommend for an easy dinner if you've not familiar with fish), it all took about 10 minutes to get into the oven, cooked at 400 for 15-18 minutes  and was delicious!!

The song in this video is a shout out to my buddy and co-Notebook Musicalconspirator, Ron Aniello.  Ron just finished producing Bruce Springsteen's much-anticipated new album "Wrecking Ball".  The single "We Take Care of Our Own" is the only track from the record that has been released, but you can pre-order here!
