While in D.C.....

We made time to visit a few museums. We made it to the National Air and Space Museum and the National Museum of Natural History. At the Natural History Museum, they had a scene set up from the new movie featuring the Smithsonian's. It appeared to be just a big pile of junk, but it was neat to see.



The one museum that left the biggest impression was the Museum of American Art. They had Louise Bourgeois' collection and it was a little strange. Here are a few of her pieces.

(I dare you to google her name and look at her other disturbing yet intriguing art!)

She had many other strange pieces, however we were not allowed to take photos. I'm pretty sure this woman had a pretty demented childhood.

At the Air and Space museum they had a display of WWII service men and women in their uniforms. Of course I had to take a picture of the woman, she gave me goose bumps.

The last night we were in DC, a friend of mine that lives in the area offered to cook dinner for us. Unfortunately Kristina and I were the only ones that could make it. Fortunately, there was more food for us!

Perry is an outstanding cook. He is the spitting image of a Italian New Yorker and boy can he cook like one too!! I told him he needs to open his own restaurant up and leave the law enforcement career behind.

Kristina and I just relaxed and had a glass of wine while he did all the work. Although, I did make sure to take mental notes, I had plans of recreating this master piece.

This is Chicken Marsala in the making. It was so moist and so good!! And surprisingly very easy!

This was the Gorgonzola cheese sauce he made. He had to keep his eye on it because Kristina and I were going to steal it and eat it all with the bread!!

The almost finished product of the chicken marsala. Ummmmm..... now I'm hungry....

And this is the finished product of the gnocchi with gorgonzola cheese sauce. Absolutely delicious!!!

Is it lunch time yet???
