I didn’t realize this, but a few Google searches later, it seems that the search for the best maple doughnut in Vermont is akin to that for the best bagel in NYC. I can now officially contribute to the discourse and say that I have found it, at the Big Picture Theater and Cafe in Waitsfield. [...]

King Arthur Flour
Posted in biweekly photo, vermont, tagged king arthur flour on September 4, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
We had to drive back to NYC for one night so that I could work at the restaurant. On our way home, we stopped by the King Arthur Flour Baker’s Store in Norwich, Vermont. The Norwich campus houses both the store, their flagship, and the education center where they offer a wide array of baking classes. [...]
Breakfast in Morro Bay
Posted in biweekly photo, brunch, california, tagged Dorn's, Morro Bay on August 23, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Morro Bay is a bit of a one horse town. As soon as we pulled in I wrote off any potential for culinary goodness. After an uninspired dinner near our hotel, my suspicions were confirmed. I woke up starving after a great night of sleep. We decided to check out Dorn’s. I walked in and [...]
San Francisco!
Posted in biweekly photo, tagged dim sum, sfo on August 15, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Nothing says welcome to San Francisco like airport dim sum at SFO. Yes, it is overpriced, that said, it’s actually quite well done. We were waiting for Christina to pick us up and I was starving, so I ran upstairs and bought these: red bean paste-filled sesame balls (my favorite), vegetable dumplings, and mini sausage [...]
Lobster roll, take two
Posted in biweekly photo, lunch out on August 13, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
The lobster roll seems to be the “in” dish this summer. From the much lauded one you can get at the Brooklyn Flea (I’ve yet to get my hands on one), to the great sandwich I had at Mermaid Inn, they are everywhere. I guess that’s summer in NYC. My parents, Dave, and I went to [...]
Birthday cupcakes

Dave’s friend Tim turned 30, so I made him 30 chocolate cupcakes. Dave referred to them as, “Ridiculously good tasting.” We took them to a BBQ Tim hosted last night. They didn’t have a big rectangular plate, but I made it work… (The “AA” above was continued onto the green plate you can see in [...]
Blueberry muffins

My mom swam the Hudson last weekend and I made these muffins for her as well as for those of us who woke up early in the morning to cheer her on. I used Nigella Lawson’s recipe from How to Be a Domestic Goddess which I think needs some tweaking (less blueberries, more batter overall), [...]

Lene’s wedding cake and favors. Yes, those are Lene and Sheldon’s faces on M&M’S.
Crab!

We just got back from the Back Forty crab boil. I have a belly full of crab (and the dog couldn’t get enough of licking my hands) and am off to bed. More details tomorrow…
Candy man, Yankee Stadium
Posted in biweekly photo, tagged Yankee Stadium on July 3, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Last week, my parents, Dave, and I finally made it to the new Yankee Stadium. None of us had the cotton candy, or any of the new culinary options on offer, including sushi, Chinese noodles and dumplings, deli sandwiches, Philly cheese steaks, Southwestern nachos and sausages, Brother Jimmy’s BBQ, and Johnny Rockets burgers and fries. We [...]
