What a spread you threw together with things that needed to be used up. I wish you could spend a class on this, I hate to admit I am terrible and coming up with ideas. Your NYE table looked amazing! (But that’s hardly a surprise) ♥️

Loved this.

Also: I’ve been wanting to try a steak in the AF but was scared it would cinderize/overcook it! M loves steak but I’m not a fan of the meaty smell of cooking one, and the splatter....going to give it a whirl.

You are one of the only people I know who shares my love of egg creams. I’ve probably told you this story three times already (but maybe not?): in high school I wrote for our “underground magazine” and my editor assigned me to a Best Egg Cream story--I drank so many--and so many bad ones--that I couldn’t drink them for a while. (I feel like Veselka was the winner but now I can’t remember!)

We almost always keep a jar of your chocolate syrup in the fridge here.

I need to look up that Temple Grandin book. Have you seen the movie made a while back--Clare Danes plays her beautifully. Worth a watch.

Thanks for the reminder that I need to make your homemade pop tarts! I went through a serious pop tart phase shortly after you published the recipe, and it somehow slid out of the routine.
