Welcome

Welcome to my blog. My blogging journey began about in August 2009 as a photo-a-day blog which has since transitioned to combine my love of good food and photography. Today, using as many local and fresh ingredients as we can, my boyfriend and myself spend time researching recipes, making our own adaptations, cooking, taking photos, eating, and finally reflecting on all or part of the above listed process here. I hope you take the time to not only read and look at our photos, but please cook some of the recipes yourself. You are invited and encourage to leave feedback as we continue our culinary journey!

Apple Cobbler

In honor of Halloween weekend, the next two entries will be simple but will also be thematic. And, you will even see a photo of Daniele carving his very first pumpkin! But, that is to come.

Last weekend Daniele and I went to a Halloween party in the suburbs. It was a potluck, so I made an Apple Cobbler, very similar to the peach and blueberry cobbler I had made earlier this summer. The only differences were the following:
  • Obviously, I used only apples instead of peach and blueberries
  • I doubled the cinnamon in the filling
  • I added 1/4 of a cup water to the filling since apples produce less moisture than peaches
The recipe turned out well, although Daniele said he preferred the peach and blueberry version. I myself preferred this one because it included more cinnimon and the peach and blueberry was a bit too sweet for me.

Enjoy our Halloween photos. I am a Geisha and Daniele, the tea party. Also featured is my long-time friend Ruthie Archer. Oh, and Daniele won a sweet arm tattoo as a prize for his costume.
