Lovely porchetta from Beast and Cleaver. Last night with a lemon orzo and tonight with a rösti. Perfection!

Roasted a goose for St Martin’s Day and made a lovey goose pie with the leftovers.

Enjoying the lovely freshness of summer. Plum steel-cut oats for brekkie and Vietnamese meatball rice bowl for dinner. Will have more plums for dessert.

Smoked garlic focaccia 👌 Enjoyed with bucatini and homemade meatballs.

A complicated celebratory dinner for my love recently. Steak salad, asparagus, and pommes pavé.

Ligurian pesto is my favorite way to enjoy pesto. Potatoes, green beans, and trofie pasta all go so well together. We enjoyed it with the steak salad with port cherries and French sheep feta. Tastes like spring.

Pollo e patate and wedge salad for my love’s birthday.

It is a pasta alla zozonne kind of day.

I made some focaccia and we enjoyed the last bit of it to make sandwiches with burrata, prosciutto, sautéed greens and nduja. If you are in the US and fan of Calabrian chilis or nduja, I HIGHLY recommend Nduja Bella in Seattle. They are fantastic and such wonderful people. They ship! #ndujabella

Celebrating the 18th anniversary of the day I met the love of my life in Midway waiting for a Southwest flight. Open seating, sat together, fell in love, planned our first date for the next night. Take your earbuds out and talk to strangers!

Cold weather is perfect for roasting vegetables. Plenty of lovely root vegetables from my local farm CSA. Go join your local farm! #wildhareorganicfarm

Chestnut gnocchi with hazelnut pesto this evening. Fortunate to have a hazelnut farm down the way! #FilbertAcres

Drunken cacio e pepe tonight. Molly Baz, I love your creativity!

Enjoy a cuppa tea and a good read on a cold afternoon. Recommend #LeenaNorms #HalfArseHuman

Happy Yorkshire pudding day! Toad in the hole, mash, mushroom gravy, and green beans. Cranachan for dessert.

Lovely snowy morning in Tacoma.
