boursin & caramelized onion tartlets

June 10, 2015

This is part of a little series on our wedding eats!  I'll be sharing homemade versions of some of our reception eats, our cake, and our wedding favors in the next few weeks.   You can see the first part of this series -- a few of B2's favorite Hawaii foods for his birthday -- here! Guys, I really love wedding appetizers. Something about endless ...

chicken katsu, mac salad & rice: a birthday hawaii plate lunch!

May 27, 2015

"Chicken katsu, katsu sauce, one scoop of mac salad, and two scoops of rice!" These are the precise (and enthusiastically recited) makings of Bowl #2's dream plate lunch-slash-birthday-request -- shatteringly crisp Panko-crusted chicken thighs, juicy inside and deftly sliced, zealously dunked in a smoky-sweet-tart katsu sauce (mysteriously made, ...

hurricane popcorn

May 20, 2015

Right around this time two years ago, I christened this baby-blog with a little birthday series for Bowl #2 -- they were something like my third, fourth, and fifth posts, and they were recipes for some of his favorite foods from back home in Hawaii.  With another one of his trips around the sun approaching (and because I can never have enough food ...

tomato bisque & apple-bacon grilled cheese

May 14, 2015

Hi friends! I'm back! I'm just peeking in again this week to share a special little guest post for a radiant new mama -- Emily from the Pig & Quill (whose baby shower from a few weeks ago was my excuse to nosh on about a year's worth of cocktail franks) had her baby! I'm mildly obsessed with baby Lana James (and her fabulous name) so I can only ...

kimchi potato salad & regular too

May 12, 2015

So Bowl #2 and I have just come to accept that we're the kind of people whose well-being depends a little pitifully on warm weather. I feel like that should have been obvious to two people from Hawaii and South Carolina, but with every Northeastern spring that's come along we're still baffled at how suddenly we're real people again, wanting to do ...

herbed focaccia & pimento romesco

April 15, 2015

Hi friends! How was your weekend? We spent a fun one down in North Carolina at the wedding of one of Bowl #2's college friends. This might just be me and the fact that I haven't gone to that many yet, but I feel like I love weddings more and more with every one I go to, even when I'm a plus-one and I've never met the bride and groom. (But also ...

spicy gochujang pigs in a blanket

March 30, 2015

It's a Pig & Quill baby shower!!  I can't remember when I first came across the sassy sunshine that is Emily's blog, but it's one of my oldest reads -- Emily's irreverent vivacity and passion for good eats make the Internet that much brighter, and on the days when she turns reflective, it's the kind of writing that hits home, lingers, and ...

maple sweet potato casserole & thyme marshmallows + thanksgiving stuffing dinner rolls

November 19, 2014

Pinch dishes from The Fortynine Studio. We had a mini impromptu Friendsgiving last weekend! Even in miniature, it was my first time putting together anything remotely like a Thanksgiving meal on my own, and it was so much fun. For the main, I braised an abundance of chicken legs using Jamie Oliver’s milk chicken recipe, which was life-changing ...

korean soy-braised tofu (dubu jorim)

September 10, 2014

We’re back! As of an hour ago, Bowl #2 and I are back in our Brooklyn nook, a little tanner, a lot rounder, kind of sleepy, and trying to remember what it’s like to be hungry. Before I go nap off our red-eye, I just wanted to drop in a little hello and a note that I have a guest post up this morning on With Food + Love! Sherrie’s blog is a ...

mashed potatoes with sage brown butter

March 5, 2014

So this may seem odd, given my great and well-documented love for Southern comfort food, but I'm not usually the biggest fan of mashed potatoes.  To me they're like the vanilla extract of side dishes -- potentially delicious, but usually in need of a partner. When I was a kid, my dad used to drive me to KFC as a treat once in awhile after piano ...
