we invited.

My boo and I recently got married in Charleston, South Carolina, after an almost two-year courtship that involved long distance between Saudi Arabia and the US and tawdry rendezvouses (note to self: figure out plural of "rendezvous") in Turkey and Italy.  I figured the best way to start this blog is read more

  • In the absence of friends, family and parties to celebrate both, I spent this holiday season baking. Really baking. Cookies. Breads. Chelsea buns. Cupcakes. A buche de Noel. This weekend was the finale of a season of sweets, starting with a pistachio and raspberry roulade and then, using the last remaining bits of cream and egg whites I had laying around, a glorious pavlova slathered with leftover lemon curd cream cheese and topped with a cloudy layer of soft whipped cream, berries and toasted almonds. My neighbors have benefited from my baking largesse; my waistline thanks them for indulging me!

As I’ve said this entire crazy, isolated holiday season, I need projects. It’s good for me to have projects. . . . . . #food #nomnomnom #thatsdarling #thehappynow #thekitchn #instayum #instafood #igfoodie #f52grams #chefmode #instapic #droolclub #bhgfood #goodeats #eatfamous #hungry #foodgasm #honestcooking #foodgawker #foodgram #foodstagram #eatstagram #foodshare
