Notes from a quiet kitchen

The past week has found us a bit busy and neglecting our kitchen, and our blog.  After a lot of training, Alexa ran the NYC marathon on Sunday (Go Alexa & Leslie!!)

So while our kitchen has been a bit quiet, I thought I’d provide you with some inspiration from the amazing chef of Le Bernardin,  Eric Ripert.  Chef Ripert has created a seasonal menu designed for the home chef to prepare with friends.  There is a prize for the best photograph of the meal, and the winner gets an Olympus camera, so if you execute this menu, be sure to submit your photos before November 17th.   We love lamb, pumpkin, and all the other Fall flavors he’s incorporated into the menu so you can bet we’ll be making it soon.  View his menu, as well as planning tips and wine pairing suggestions on his blog, here: aveceric.com

Thank you for your patience while we take some time away from the kitchen.  This weekend we’ll do a grocery shop and get ourselves back in there, making more sustainable delectables, and saving more $$$. Until then, have a look at some of our favorite food blogs on the side bar.
