It’s a Fireworks Focaccia Garden for Fourth of July! Hope you all enjoyed the holiday with lots of family, friends & fireworks to celebrate the day. I always enjoy bringing the garden into my own kitchen. 🌿🌱🍃

Croxetti (aka Corzetti) is a coin-medallion pasta from Liguria imprinted with a family coat of arms, a tradition dating back to the Renaissance. Cooks would customize the pasta with a wooden stamp at the request of aristocrats who felt the need to distinguish themselves from the poor.
Here it is served with a walnut-pesto cream sauce with chicken.

The first of the Wish Farms pineberries have arrived: Pink-a-Boo Pineberry, which taste like a cross between pineapple and strawberry. 🤩 I like to make a pretty salad with these, come Valentine's Day.

My #BetterHalf's wish to #PlayWithFood is my command. The #Lobster (small) edition. 💞

Yes, it's me again, playing with food: my favorite Paul Bocuse Mac & Cheese using Perciatelli pasta... and of course another gardenscape to top it off because I just can't resist bringing garden design to the kitchen table.

Serious cooks have ways of keeping their spices organized. I had a spice rack built on my pantry door, and they're alphabetized top to bottom. The jars have easy to read labels with a world map on the cap that highlights the area where the spice is most prevalently used. When I immersed myself in international cooking a few decades ago, I felt this was the best way to keep my spices straight.
