  • There’s nothing like mom’s cooking. When I was a teenager, one of my very honest friends admitted to me that I would go to school sometimes smelling like burnt tortillas. Ask me today if I care. • My sister and I have made a few requests of my mom, including her homemade flour tortillas. She rolls them out by hand and uses a cast iron ‘comal’ to cook them. And watching her go about it like a machine is so hypnotizing - in a flash it brings me right back to my childhood. • Here’s to a week of mom’s cooking and stretchy pants👖🙈 . . . . . . . #myopenkitchen #tv_stilllife #aquietmoment #inmykitchen #mywilliamssonoma #tastespotting #shareyourtable #bareaders #mycanonstory #homemadewithlove #firstweeat #hautecuisines #marthastewart
  • Since our weather is still keeping our ovens humming, I decided to put some frozen stone fruit to perfect use and whipped up @linda_lomelino ’s Peach & Plum Pie with an all-butter crust. Because if I’m going to deal with chilly weather for a while longer 🤦🏻‍♀️, at least I’ll have pie to get me through it 🙌🏼🥧 • I will say there are GORGEOUS tree blossoms 🌺🌸 everywhere. I just wish they would last months long, not days. But I’ll take whatever we can get, and I’m going to try to incorporate their brilliant colors everywhere I can - hope you don’t mind!📷 • Happy Tuesday, lovelies! . . . . . . . #myopenkitchen #tv_stilllife #aquietmoment #inmykitchen #mywilliamssonoma #tastespotting #shareyourtable #bareaders #mycanonstory #dessertsnotstressed #howispring #f52april #firstweeat #hautecuisines
  • We did it! Thank you, Quinn Hatfield, for sharing your recipe on the world wide web for your Croque Madame with Hamachi for all to enjoy. We had to improvise a bit with swordfish instead of yellowtail 😕, but the near-fried brioche bread, luscious prosciutto and delicious dainty lil quail egg on the top brought us right back to our elegant dinners in the modern minimalist dining room at Hatfield’s. This take on the classic Croque Madame surprises the palate with a freshness from the fish, a brininess from the prosciutto and all the decadence in the world from the beurre blanc (and buttery toast!). Even if our beurre blanc fell a little short, err, thin. Just means we’ll have to practice some more! 🤷🏻‍♀️🙌🏼 • Hope you had a fabulous weekend, lovelies! . . . . . . . #myopenkitchen #verilymoment #tv_stilllife #aquietmoment #inmykitchen #RSlove #mywilliamssonoma #imitationgame #tastespotting #mycanonstory #foodwinewomen #foodandwine #shareyourtable #bareaders @food #quaileggs #firstweeat #hautecuisines #farmfresh #pgminseason
  • There are a few things my husband and I truly miss about Southern California. One of those things is an award-winning restaurant (sadly now closed) called Hatfield’s. Our favorite dish was their version of the Croque Madame, which includes hamachi, butter-fried brioche and a dainty little quail egg on top. It’s the perfect dish for our schizophrenic near 80-degree weather here in the northeast! 🙌🏼 I’m not complaining, especially since tomorrow will be back in the 40s 🙄 • Also, next week the hubs and I will be visiting family down in the Scottsboro, Alabama area, so we’re open to all tips and places to see while we’re down there! Apparently the most amazing resale shop is right in town, where all the u claimed luggage goes!! Have you been there? Will definitely have a full report when we return! • Hope you are having the best weekend since last weekend! . . . . . . . #myopenkitchen #verilymoment #tv_stilllife #aquietmoment #inmykitchen #RSlove #mywilliamssonoma #tastespotting #mycanonstory #foodwinewomen #shareyourtable #foodandwine #bareaders @food #onmytable #firstweeat #hautecuisines #farmfresh #pgminseason
  • Sundays are for sleeping 💤 in late, a nap 😴 or two on the couch and cookies.🍪🍪 • These sea salt dusted chocolate chip cookies will surely sweeten any day, but especially the weekend. I know many dread Sunday evenings because it means the weekend is over, but I try to savor those last few hours and pamper myself with a nice facial, plan a few weekday lunches and dinners, and get to bed early. I know, I know - I am so boring! 🙈 • But I can tell you it definitely helps ease back into the week. What do you do to wind down and deal with Sunday Scaries? . . . . . . . #myopenkitchen #verilymoment #tv_stilllife #aquietmoment #inmykitchen #RSlove #mywilliamssonoma #tastespotting #bareaders @food #mycanonstory #howispring #whpimbored #dessertsnotstressed #cookies #firstweeat #hautecuisines
  • We made it to the weekend, lovelies! I was craving something healthyish this morning, so I revamped @food52’s Green Shakshuka with ingredients in my fridge, spiced it up a bit with jalapeños and voila - the perfect guilt-free weekend brunch! I’ll be updating the blog ASAP with this easy lil recipe. • Lately I’ve been on a middle eastern cuisine kick. Every dish I’ve had the pleasure of enjoying always opened my taste buds to new flavor combinations and new umami-ness that I was determined to replicate in my own kitchen. • So I’m starting out with a couple recipes that first truly piqued my intrigue - fesenjan served over tahdig. Do you have any experience with middle eastern dishes? This newbie would love to hear your tips and tricks! • Hope you have a fantastic weekend! . . . . . . . #myopenkitchen #verilymoment #tv_stilllife #aquietmoment #inmykitchen #RSlove #mywilliamssonoma #tastespotting #bareaders @food #mycanonstory #howispring #shakshuka #brunchgame #firstweeat #hautecuisines
