Eat. Drink. Live.
When I tell you that these are the best baked beans you’ll ever have, you should believe me. They’re from an Alton Brown recipe, and I originally discovered it on the Serious Eats blog. (I wish my photo looked as […]
The best thing about shopping at the Pleasantville Farmers Market is that it’s the only market where you can get Rainbeau Ridge goat cheese. It was delicious the next morning with strawberries, a bagel and some jam:
I ran the lawnmower in front of the bees, and boy did they get all uppity about it! They were buzzing so much I had to get the camera out. So here’s a look-see. More photos, after the jump.
The neighbors joined us for a trip the P’ville Market Saturday morning. Guess what we found? That’s right, folks. It’s sour cherry season! More photos from the market, after the jump.
After drinks at the Red Hat, we walked around the corner for supper at the Day Boat Cafe, a new seafood restaurant in Irvington. The ceiling is lined with red oars. Our fish dinner, after the jump.
Sue and Trae were in town, so I met them for drinks and dinner on Friday. First stop, Red Hat on the River for cocktails with a view.
We harvested lettuce, beets and carrots from the fields this afternoon, and made a delishy salad for dinner. Roasted carrots, roasted beets, goat cheese, fresh lettuce with lemon vinaigrette and garlic bread. After the jump, the harvest:
It couldn’t be easier to make delicious homemade fresh lemonade — and it’s oh-so-much better tasting than anything you mix up from a powder.
It’s just so easy for us to go to Barcel. It’s four blocks away, we love the food, and it’s not that expensive. I guess that’s why we go so often. This time, we went for brunch! Even the toast […]
I got a bee in my bonnet about having some creme fraiche ice cream to go with all the good fruit and pies we’ve been having, and that’s not something they have in the freezer aisle at the store. So […]
I don’t do this feature anymore much, but these strawberries looked so darn good I just had to share:
After our first two stops at Alta and El Faro, we walked along the High Line (sorry, no photos) to our final stop of the evening, Tia Pol. (SCF fans may remember Tia Pol from such posts as BDoF, Part […]
El Faro has been around a very long time. Since 1927, according to the sign out front. Yeah. We’re talking old school. There’s a worn wooden bar, a drop ceiling and a terrazzo cement floor that’s so worn down that the step […]
I’m reporting for a story on The Ultimate Tapas Run for Arrive — and that’s how Boo and I found ourselves with a lovely plate of Lamb Meatballs with spiced butternut squash foam, toasted sesame seeds and lebne while sitting […]
My husband, Greg, and I are co-founders of SCF, which chronicles what we eat, drink and grow as we raise our daughter on a tiny plot of land in the Lower Hudson Valley.
