Spicy Meatballs

I had a package of ground chicken in my freezer and absolutely no food so as a result I had to work with what I had in order to make something delicious! I had originally made a few burgers with the ground chicken but then decided that since I have my Nonno's AMAZING spicy sauce, what better to do with ground beef than to make meatballs! 

I have severely underestimated how spicy my Nonno's sauce is (by adding more chilli peppers). I think since I have been having the regular (unspicy sauce) most of the time, I forgot how much that man loved his spice and loved to test my pallet! As a result, the meatballs turned out awesome all because of that wonderful man and his Italian ways! 

*side note: the pictures do not do justice, but the aroma definitely does 

You can't have meatballs without a some parm and a little extra seasoning to top it all off 

Weekend!

A little late - but better late than never! 

My Aunt and Uncle and their two kids came down to Canada for the kids March break, but of course I was stuck at school and couldn't come visit them in Toronto. However, they did get a chance to come up and visit me for a light dinner which was super exciting! (I'm sorry I fully forgot to take picture of the food, we got too caught up in conversation!) 

Instead here are some pictures of my daily jewelry and of the fam at dinner :) 

 My Nonno passed away in December of 2011 and for Christmas this year my parents found a set of very old coins that he had kept in his house and plated them in silver and gave them to my sister, cousin and I! I think it looks awesome on both the silver beaded chain my Mom got to go with it as well as my long Tiffany chain (in this picture)! I'm not sure if its worth anything, but its awesome to have as a little memento of him (as well as my tattoo ;))
