Check out this cake from this blog (via kris atomic). I think it is one of the most appealing things I’ve ever laid eyes on, plus doesn’t it just look fun? I must make NOW.

We have made this twice this week..well.. because it’s just that good. I know the title leaves this ingredient out but the caramelized onions are really the best part. You can tell by my photo that I didn’t exactly have the patience to caramelize for this pizza. Trust me. It’s worth the wait. A friend...
While eating this meal the afternoon of our 1st anniversary, we both wondered aloud whether this was better than our actual wedding day…. I won’t bore you with every detail of our experience at French Laundry (since I already bombarded you with image overload)…..but know this….we had no regrets. It lived up to all the...
(THE Bouchon Bakery in Yountville, CA) One more confession before I turn you free to the weekend: Bread. I love it. I said it! You heard it! I mean it! Here’s to flaky buttery morsels of heaven…and to the weekend (being sick makes you think the week will never end). I’m shooting a beautiful wedding...
We started off our anniversary weekend in Napa by eating our first night at Ad Hoc. It turned out to be one of the most delicious meals I have ever eaten (I’m 31. I’ve eaten a lot of meals). Everything was perfectly seasoned, the meal was so well balanced with sweet, salty, sour…the textures, the...
Sometimes I really REALLY need brioche bread from Bouchon Bakery. Lots of food photos and Thomas Keller delights hailing from Napa tomorrow on the blog. Come hungry.
Grant and I picked up our first box of food after joining a CSA farming program finally. We have been waiting to join for years now and are kicking ourselves for waiting so long. These items taste amazingly good. This photo doesn’t even show everything we got in one box. I’m sure I will be...
I beautiful sustainable restaurant I ate at while in Vancouver. It was waterside and every plate was a peice of art. C Restaurant also had really delicious sourdough bread served with creamed butter and sprinkled with sea salt. It was pretty much heaven.
For 14 years my Thurston Grandparents lived in La Jolla California. I loved as a young girl flying to stay with them, playing on the beach, shopping at the NEX and watching Elvis movies. One of my favorite memories was my Grandma making sticky rice for us to take on our flight home. She would...
(photo via smitten kitchen) Yesterday for lunch I made Smitten Kitchens latest recipe. A tomato sauce that is curiously simple and surprisingly tasty. A great base sauce with ingredients you always have on hand. (feverishly working on the last perfecting details of the new website…days away, hours away!!)
Every morning we ate a papaya (sometimes 2) with lime and apple bananas. Lau lau is my favorite Hawaiian dish. Usually consists of fish or pork wrapped in taro leaves and steamed. Sadly I usually have a hard time finding this and when I do it is in short supply. I should move there and...
Nothing I love more than food and family. The meal was delicious. HUGE thanks to Nancy and Hugh for doing 99% of the work. We appreciate all the service and love you give to us and the whole family and only hope we can repay you someday. I made a couple pumpkin pies and a...
In celebration of it being Monday, I wanted to share with you my favorite discovery….instant oatmeal on airplanes! It doesn’t matter if I just ate a huge meal, I step onto an airplane and am hungry. Sometimes I get fancy and make food and bring it, but other times I fall prey to airport food...
