I normally don’t do trends. But a BREAD DIPPING OIL? Twist my everything. These are popular right now. Maybe they’ve always been popular? Think: every Italian restaurant chain in the ’90s. IN. So we’re going to make one. And honestly, these are highly tweakable, adaptable, customizable, all the -ables you can muster up. We basically […]
It’s ABOUT time. I know. Hummus! Creamy, dreamy, smooth-like-buttah hummus. And guess what, I brought back a couple of tips from Israel! Including tahini from the original press in Jerusalem. Hello, cannot get any better than that. You can find good imported tahini everywhere, so just get the good stuff and you’re in fine shape […]
It’s a side dish! And okay we need to talk about these flowers before you freak. But we before we get there, this is cripplingly delicious. I cannot express it enough. I implore you to make this appetizer or side dish at some point this summer. Yes it requires your oven on, but you’ll be […]
It’s not quiiiiiite a hummus. I know that’s what you’re wondering. It’s not. But look at this. I mean my lands, you guys. It’s very simple, and a complete showstopper. And it’s just a dip! But all hail the dips because this one is absolutely killer. And you just may need to whip this up […]
It was going to be the perfect beach picnic, it was. Except, there’s this thing in nature called wind. And sand. Have you heard about them? Wind and sand? So the thing about wind is this: it’s unexpected. And sudden. And obnoxiously gusty. And it moves the sand when it blows. Like, the sand leaves […]
Hi, my name is Bev, and I’m maniacally obsessed with charcuterie boards. HI, BEV. It’s like, this magical mix of casual hodge podge eating. But thrown together on a board with everything in their own little place and a scattering of flowers? OH YOU FANCY. This board though – it’s different. It’s spesh (<–sorry). It […]
See this is why I can’t watch sports. Mainly because 97% of the time, I have zero idea who’s on first and what’s on second and what match is this and why are they wearing fanny packs on their butts and where can I get one? But mostly, because WHEN I watch, the team loses. […]
Want to hear a funny story? Funny like ha ha. Of course you do. I totally posted the wrong blog post yesterday. COMPLETE WRONG BLOG POST. And I didn’t even notice it for like, almost four hours! I posted an old summer post – zucchini crostini. WHICH YOU CAN SEE HOW I MADE THE MISTAKE. […]
Well well WELL….. I accidentally-totally-on-purpose made this luxurious pile of creamy, cheesy, buttery, mushroomy bliss a couple of days ago for lunch, and all I could do (besides sob like a baby) was imagine hosting a fabulous ladies’ luncheon and serving this with a bucket ton of rosé and a crisp kale salad. It was […]
THEY WORKED. The gougères that I was having a mammoth anxiety attack over before I even started making them. THEY WORKED! What’s a gougère? It’s a French cheese puff! A pastry of sorts. Savory. Life giving. And you know, I don’t know why I was so sissified to make them. They’re actually quite easy. You […]
