I needed a break. I’m sure you know the drill. You work, work, work 60 hours each week and forget that, wow, the seasons are changing right before your eyes and, wow, you’re so lucky to live in Massachusetts. But I had forgotten all that and desperately needed a mini-vacation, a moment to

Backyard Boutique Farming

In addition to supporting boutique food businesses, all of us at Eat Boutique endeavor to focus on the great food growing in our own back yard. I’ve been especially busy planning my vegetable garden since… well… since I plucked my last squash late last year. Even while gorging on amazing local food in Paris all

While I make coffee in the morning, I like to open our kitchen door to let in the warmth of the sun or the coolness of the winter rain. Today, I could smell the remaining footprints of our last winter rains mixed with the scent of springtime jasmine.
After two days of icy cold rains, we

I miss Summer. I know I’m not the only one. But while others miss the beach and icy margaritas, I miss visiting the farmers’ market each week. Last year was the first time I signed up for a community-supported agriculture (CSA) program and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

Goose Cove Gardens is one of Gloucester’s best treasures, a garden nursery with the healthiest plants and the nicest Karma.  Barbara, the lovely straw-hatted owner, is always protecting me from myself: “Do you really need five new Russian Sage, Heather?”
Ever the educators, Barbara and the ladies from Goose Cove Gardens are offering a midwinter course

This soup was inspired by a haul from my CSA and truly rocks my world. It may not seem fancy or unusual, but the addition of a goat milk béchamel to thicken the soup imparts the most divine flavor that feels at once healthy and luxurious. I’ve been sharing this recipe with vegetarian (non-vegan) friends

Pumpkin-Spice Muffins

About three years ago, as I was watching an episode of the Martha Stewart Show, I had my own mini-epiphany. I was watching a young, self-taught baker school Martha in the ways of organic, all-natural, vegan baking. Martha, the expert at basically everything, was being nudged around by a slight and slightly spicy Erin McKenna,

Homemade Gnocchi

I’ve been dreaming about these light as air pillows since I morphed into a serious home cook. Years ago, I wanted to venture into gnocchi territory but something always frightened me. I figured homemade gnocchi was like homemade pasta, something that is conceptually easy to make but turns out to be a difficult-to-master technique passed

Georgia + Brussels Sprouts = Total Love

I adore brussels sprouts. I adore Georgia Pellegrini. When Georgia posted on brussels sprouts recently, my objects of adoration collided and it felt as if our virtual bond was forever cemented. I love anyone who loves brussels sprouts and her photos are a tribute to this under-appreciated vegetable.
Georgia is a food fanatic, chef, writer and
