Scenes from a Weekend with Scallops and Lady Apples



The cold continue eventually arrived this weekend. Everyone was articulate about it upon a street, during school, during a market... All watchful anxiously for Saturday sunrise when temperatures were ostensible to dump into a 50's.

We woke up earlier than usual that sunrise as well as ran downstairs to open all a windows. J's face spoke a thousand words. "Does this mean it is going to snow?".



It was a pleasing week end indeed. Some of my a one preferred kinds of days. Sunshine, bright blue skies with a chilly breeze. Jacket required. We outlayed a week end thinking of ways to be outside. The park, a beach, walks around a neighborhood... as well as ways to cook comfort food.

I phoned my mother to ask her what she had done for lunch that day. "Sardines", she said. "They looked pleasing during a market". we unexpected longed for to run to a fishmonger as well as squeeze my hands upon handful of glittering, uninformed sardines. The smell of grilled sardines is only engraved in my brain.



Unfortunately, uninformed sardines have been a rare commodity around here. The couple of times we have seen them, they have looked rsther than unhappy as well as have trafficked only as well far to be any good. But we did spot a little good looking scallops as well as thought they would be undiluted simply prepared with a! c rust of breadcrumbs, herbs as well as bacon.



I found a first woman apples of a season, that reminded me how time flies. It seems similar to it was yesterday when my mother was land a play of woman apples for me to photograph. It was right after M. was born. Our little M... she will turn a year in a couple of days. Hard to believe.

Lady apples have been so tasty as they are. Crunchy when raw. The undiluted compliment for a creamy coconut rice pudding we made. You know how much we adore arroz criminal leche in all a variations, similar to this as well as this. This time however, we went for a quick as well as easy version that didn't require station subsequent to a pot for over an hour. Quickly baked a rice as well as churned it with coconut milk, total milk, vanilla bean as well as lemon zest. Warm as well as fresh.



I'm off to New York City tomorrow where some-more cold continue awaits me. we adore a city. we will be tough during work, though will really have time to eat as well as a little play. Yes, please.
