all the things brewing in my head at any given time.

This blog is an ode to the pleasures of sharing a meal with people you love. Whether it's a quick bite at a trendy food truck, a casual family dinner, or an 8 course meal at Cyrus, I love the ritual of sitting down for food and conversation with family and friends. I also find great joy in cooking and creating a warm place for people to gather over shared experiences. I guess this blog is an attempt to virtually expand the circle of people in my life who enjoy the same pleasures. Hope you enjoy it.

Good Stuff: Butter Bell Crock

I discovered this when we were rented a house in Provence a few summers ago. Every morning we woke to a glorious spread of perfect baguettes, cheeses, charcuterie, Nutella, jams and, best of all, deliciously spreadable butter.

If you hate scraping cold chips of butter on your bagel, the Butter Bell Crock is for you. It keeps butter at room temperature for up to 30 days in a clever crock that is placed inside a jar with a bit of water in it. The design apparently reflects outside heat while insulating and cooling the butter. However it works, it works! We use ours every morning and, every morning, a liitle part of me thinks I'm in Provence again.
