What would you do if money were not an object?

IMAGINE THIS…

One day you suddenly woke up with an unlimited supply of money at your fingertips. How would you feel about it? What would you spend it on? A new chapter begins: It is hard to imagine all of the possibilities suddenly available to you! Would you re-decorate?

Most men I know would hurry to buy luxury cars, maybe even the most expensive car in the world like this one below from Mercedes Benz set in diamonds. The Lamborghini Veneno, a super-fast sports car goes for a cool $3.9 million dollars and only three are made each year! If driving isn’t your style, you could buy a private yacht to cruise around on the ocean, the ultimate fisherman’s dream! I personally prefer a private jet to avoid all the airport crowds and stress associated with travel. It comes handy once I complete my pilot license and become a pilot!

Some of us dream of something different. Most of us women would love to be able to afford the ultimate, high-end designer wardrobe with shoes, handbags, and jewelry to match. If money was no option, would you buy a Hermes Berkin bag in every color? or exotic alligator skin with diamond setting that’s reserved only for special few who shop there.  Or maybe Mouawad’s 1001 Nights Diamond Purse, the most expensive handbag in the world priced at $3.8 million dollars. It would certainly be amazing to walk into Bergdorf Goodman, and buy whatever you would like! Just like a celebrity, you could be dripping with diamonds, and covered from head to toe in clothing straight from the runway!

Once you got your fill of diamonds and cars, you could go and eat at all of the most expensive restaurants in the world. I would definitely want to try the Haute Chocolate Ice cream from Serendipity priced at $25,000, topped with edible gold, and eaten with a golden spoon decorated with diamonds. Or you could stop for breakfast at Norma’s in New York and get a $1,000 frittata, which is filled with lobster and very expensive caviar. You could even travel the world, trying different cuisines and learning from famous chefs! But I think after all of this food you would definitely have to hire a personal trainer to keep you in shape!

Think about this: How much stuff would you need to buy to truly be happy? Do you think that having an endless supply of money makes a person content? Comment and let us know! I think that no amount of money will ever be a replacement for happiness. Even when our economy was excelling in prosperity just few years ago, most people were found unhappy. That’s a proven fact!

It sounds corny to say, but the best and the richest things in our lives are the things that are free, like our family, friends and pets. And I promise you, if you are ever down, instead of wishing to win the lottery, try volunteering to help someone in need and you might be surprised at how rich it makes you feel!

MIRROR MIRROR ON THE WALL WHO MAKES THE BEST OSTRICH EGG OMELETTE OUT OF ALL?

A friend like Sylwia Wiesenberg is good to have. She is best known for her Tonique Fitness body work, but she is also gifted Chef. She essentially unites creative mind, brings people together by making healthy comfort food and letting all alliances work themselves out.

Once again she produced winner recipe simply using the best-of-this-season’s ingredients.

I fashioned myself as her assistant for a day proving to coincide my “gourmet phile” for this special treat. We whipped ostrich egg into a delicious omelet adding some sautéed ramps and seasonal fresh micro greens.

Ostrich egg is the equivalent of about 2 dozen chicken eggs. Its health benefits are greater than some of those found in chicken eggs. It weighs between 3-6lb. They are significantly lower in cholesterol than chicken eggs and have larger amounts of polyunsaturated fatty acids. A single ostrich egg has 2,000 calories but you need to divide it by 24 (chicken egg equivalent) scoring total of 83 calories per serving, which is only six calories higher than a chicken egg.

You can find it at WholeFood or or your local Farmer’s market. This is quick, easy to make dish everyone would love.  The ostrich egg is said to have been a favorite food of Queen Victoria. 

Serves 10
We garnished it with ramps, micro greens, radish, fresh stone crab tossed with olive oil, and fleur de sel for even better flavor. (You can also use Himalayan pink salt)
Every element in this fresh, clean-tasting dish is rich in minerals, proteins, low cholesterol, and its much airier in taste then your ordinary chicken egg omelette.

RECIPE
Use 1 Ostrich egg, whisk it throughly. Melt 1 tbs of organic/natural cow grass fed butter on small heat mixed with olive oil. (I recently discovered ghee which gives a lot of flavor when you sauté your veggies and its Sooooooo delicious )  Add ramps and sauté them for few minutes tossing them throughly. They almost immediately shrink in size. Add whisked ostrich egg liquid and and mix all together. Cook for few minutes constantly flipping it.
Serve with your favorite greens, and veggies. Add smoked salt, and paper to complete this delicious dish.
                                                           

                                                           Bon Appétit!
