Re. the Flickr problem on Monday, from my mom’s computer in Oregon when I’m not logged in I can choose “copy image address” but it copies a blank fake address. Awesome. Using Gretchen’s workaround (which requires going into the “all sizes” view once logged in), here are some things: Bittersweet branches for fall: A convention [...]

You guys, Ben gave me the plague. Not cool. I’ve been deathly ill since late last week, and first thing tomorrow morning I’m headed to Oregon to celebrate my mom’s birthday. We have some good cooking planned for while I’m home, and hopefully once I’m back we’ll get back into a more normal eating-at-home schedule. [...]

A non-food post, but I have to share a few photos with you… Last weekend we joined Ben’s aunt/uncle/cousins/mom/brother/etc. on Cape Cod for the weekend, breathing in big lung-fulls of cool air and leaving just into time for the Nor’Easter on Sunday. I spent a very happy two hours bundled up on Saturday, tramping up [...]

Ben and I had a long conversation a couple weeks ago, while we were in the car driving back to Cambridge from New Hampshire. We were talking about goals and dreams and we somehow got on the topic of the blog and what I want to do, career-wise, and eventually I found myself going on [...]

Regular readers are well aware of my adoration for Stone Soup Farm, the source of my wonderful CSA farm share for the last two years. The farm has kept us well fed with the most gorgeous vegetables (and eggs, this year!), continually reminding me of the value of eating local and supporting area farms. Stone [...]

Have many lovely photos of chickens/farm to post. Too lazy to upload. Computer running like molasses in winter and making even weirder sounds than usual. Back soon!

Three years ago at this very moment I was eating brunch with my bridesmaids before getting dressed for our wedding. We definitely faced the “for better or for worse” early on, but it has been the best time of my life, being married to Ben. Next month marks a DECADE since we started dating! Time [...]

[Hello, lovely visitors from An Apple a Day! I was touched to see Amy's post when I got back from a long weekend in NH, and I hope you like what you see and stay a while.] When last we met, I’d told you all about Ben’s birthday dinner. The next day was my birthday, [...]
