Chilled Avocado Soup

I find soup to be so comforting in the winter months  and I love to pair it with a crusty piece of bread.  Why can’t chilled versions of this classic cold weather comfort food offer a summer-time pick me up, too?  It’s a fresh, no-cook solution to a summer potluck and I can already picture

Rhubarb Spritzer

Spritzer sounds so, girly, I know. But honestly, when it tastes this good, I don’t care. And when it looks this stunning, I want to serve it to everyone. Even the boys. Happy Memorial Day!   – Maggie I was in a restaurant last week for dinner, a gorgeous place with a menu that was

We’re On Pinterest

With my very first pin, I fell hard for Pinterest. Almost instantly it surpassed Facebook as my number one way to gaze away half the day. A virtual pinboard that allows you to organize and share all the beautiful things you find on the web, Pinterest is what I do when I have a few

What We’re Loving: For Breakfast

Although my mom cooked outstanding traditional dishes growing up (yes, I’m talking meatloaf, flank steak and green bean casserole), I would just flip to hear her say those magic words:  breakfast-for-dinner.  I know, it was just pancakes and sausage at 7 p.m. instead of 7 a.m., but somehow this morning-to-night swap was a culinary highlight

Last month Tara introduced us to  Boston Food Swap,  an organization she co-founded that lets local food lovers swap abundant homemade, homegrown or foraged food.   At this month’s event  she swapped homemade batches of fava bean spread.  She tells us there’s been quite a bounty on hand recently: jams and pancetta to smoked fish,

Strawberries and Balsamic

Our strawberry infatuation continues! Jill’s strawberry post today reminds us that so much of what tastes great can come from our own backyard and it’s time to get planting. And I love that strawberries don’t need much to be transformed into a sophisticated dish. -Maggie This year I am obsessed with turning our backyard into

What We’re Loving: With Strawberries

Strawberries. Picking them from the local patch. Eating them right from the basket. Wiping the juice trickling down the corner of my mouth after biting into a plump, ripe strawberry. There’s not much better than strawberry season. Although I adore the very traditional strawberry favorite — shortcake — I’m happy to add some new dishes

It doesn’t take much to spruce up a refrigerator staple into a chic accompaniment.   Take butter, for example. We all know it, use it and love it, but probably don’t tend to think of it as the star of a meal. Shelby reminds us below that dressing up butter is delicious and fun and

Very Fond of Food

Cookbooks are inspirational reading.  They’re filled with nourishing ideas, incredible food photography and often, like Sophie Dahl’s Very Fond of Food, some entertaining anecdotes, personal notes and silly stories.  They make us laugh and make us hungry.  What new cookbooks are inspiring you? – Maggie I’m a bit embarrassed to admit this, but I flipped

It’s not too late to send a belated gift to Mom (hint: Our Mother’s Day gift box will still taste great even if it arrives next week).  But in case you want to whip something up in the kitchen for Sunday, these are a few items we’re loving right now and think Mom would, too.

Sunday mornings are my designated mornings of relaxation, as I’m sure they are for most people.   It’s my one morning a week where I’m not running around like crazy trying to get out of the house. It’s the only morning where I get to enjoy a more lavish breakfast than a quick bowl of
