Hello! Well, as usual, this summer has felt like a constant series of racing from one thing to the next, but if it's one thing I'm happy to have ticked off my list, it's finally making this corn, miso, & mascarpone pasta, which has been languishing in the back of my mind for far too long. Years ago now, I discovered this magical

supreme soy sauce chow mein
Here's a quick little recipe in honor of Lunar New Year next week. It's true that technically speaking, we should be eating chang shou mian, but it's also true that supreme soy sauce chow mein is impossibly delicious and impossibly easy, and far and away my new favorite noodle dish, so in my humble opinion, we're just fine if we decide to ...
miso brothy beans with greens
At just the right time this past spring, Erin Alderson posted a gorgeous snap of her miso brothy beans on her Instagram and stopped me mid-scroll. Life was crazy, I was partway through my pregnancy with Fiona, and terrible ...

hush puppies
Sometimes the simplest recipes are the best balms.

stir-fried lettuce bowl with ginger fried rice and egg
We have had two big developments of our summer so far. One is that I went back to work (and we can skip discussing that) but the other is much more exciting: We moved! Somehow some people in the world thought that it was okay for this pair of silly babies to actually, honest-to-goodness own a home. Now that we're done screaming in terror over the ...
a lunar new year round-up
Happy Lunar New Year! A snapshot of the new year around here: This prescient lady's comic series keeps popping up on my social media feeds and, as we're heading into the last few weeks of B4's residency in Casa Mama, I have to say she's onto something. B2 has been ...
