Eat. Drink. Live.
We ran into my friend Tania at the opening of the Pleasantville Farmers Market; she was covering it for the paper. She made this gorgeous photo of our girl. Thanks Tania!
As is our tradition for, well, many years now, we celebrated Christmas night with a tamale feast. We order them from the Texas Tamale Factory, and they arrive vacuum-sealed in bags, which makes them super easy to heat up. With […]
Something tells me this might be the last Christmas morning I sleep in for a very long while. So we took advantage of that! A few gifts to exchange, a big breakfast of French toast and brown sugar, black pepper […]
For the second visit to the Met this month, we took in the Warhol exhibit: Regarding Warhol: Sixty Artists, Fifty Years. I didn’t take any photos in the exhibition for a couple of reasons. 1. They were not permitted. 2. I […]
A cute photo of Sam. We are shopping for Vegan Holiday Entree Attempt Number Two. Patience, fans. Patience.
Samantha really likes peas!
Baa. Of course.
The Nyack contingent of the book club met to finish up the discussion of The Glass Menagerie and discuss a short story, “Sonny’s Blues,” by James Baldwin. The centerpiece of the meal was this gorgeous Stuffed Kobocha Squash, prepared by […]
A little chilly walk on a Saturday afternoon. What fun. Look at the river! And the light! More pics of Samantha, after the jump.
Our little girl turned one. A few photos from the evening, after the jump.
Sam has taken to turning around to say hi while in her stroller. Hey there, cutie.
Maybe it was having the Korean chicken the weekend before? But I got some kind of bug, and we decided to have another bo ssam dinner. (The first one was in February, and it was really delicious.) Two big pork […]
Hmart is a great new grocery store in White Plains. It’s part of a smallish chain that started in Queens as a Korean grocer. They now carry all sorts of imported items from all different countries, but they do specialize […]
We like to call this photo “Voting on Hudson.” Sam at the polls: A few more, after the jump.
Two videos of our baby girl.
Well, this day had to come. The gates are up. And when Samantha is trapped? Samantha is crying.
Sam is a maniac! She’s crawling everywhere, pulling up to stand, and cruising, too. So we went to Babies R Us for some gates. So much for good design sense for the farm. But when you see this little munchkin? […]
Mornings in bed with Samantha are pretty sweet.
Oh my, what a cutie. She loves it.
Looksie! Sam really has this crawling thing down, I’d say.
I guess we were too busy wining and dining to take any photos of the people who came to celebrate Greg’s brithday with lamb shanks and polenta this evening. But luckily, we do have documentation of the evening with this […]
Karen, in to cover the UN, spent the night Friday, and we had a rollicking time on the porch with the neighbors. In the morning, we headed downtown for a walk and some eggs. Harry’s! Chicken tinga tacos for me!
A nice portrait of Sam:
Cooking for one is back, just for a few days. First, I had an late afternoon walk with Samantha, then I fixed myself a leftover burger with corn and a wedge with blue cheese dressing. Happy Sunday, y’all.
Indeed they are.
Why yes. That would Samanatha. 9 1/2 months now. And she’s crawling, rolling and generally squirming everywhere.
“She’s not heavy, she’s Samantha.” Sweet Jahn.
Wherein Samanatha is completely enthralled by seeing herself in the phone’s camera:
What are we doing feeding Srimp in dark of dining room when we could be outside on the porch? Everyone wants to be on the porch!
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.
