Heathrow International Airport, London, England. July 30 - 11:30 am GT (Greenwich Time). First day of our trip. Who says you can't have decent food while traveling? At least if you have a 3 hour layover in London before your 12 hour flight (without inflight entertainment because it was broken) you can! Premier jour de notre grand périple. Qui dit que l'on ne peut pas bien manger en voyage? Labels: US Road Trip. The Search for Perfect Gazpacho / A la recherche d'un gaspacho parfait. Usually cooking is a s...

Split Pea Soup with Cumin Seeds. The common cold: exciting side effect of temperatures changes, bane of modern medicine, butt of this telling joke. Doctor prescribed rest and supplements for my immune system rather than pneumonia, so I immediately came home and made chicken soup. I made the stock directly with a whole chicken so the meat would get falling-off-the-bone-tender. Only in France would a baker sign his bread like a Picasso! I added cumin seeds to this soup and I think the flavor worked well.

This weekend D. and I did a good deed. We helped a friend who just moved this year to a new city celebrate a birthday. Did it hurt that this friend is a foodie and that the new city was Lyon, a city known for its gastronomy? Well, no. Ok, full confession: we spent the weekend eating. The birthday girl was happy and so were we! I won't go into all the different kinds of food we came across (the amazing charcuteries. And the divine smells in the streets and the typical bouchons.

Today marks the first official day of a new project, a week of physically and emotionally intensive rehearsals at a theater that has basically turned the keys over to us for a week to do as we please. Yes, they're crazy. But then again so are we - and anyone who throws themselves into something they are passionate about and just trusts the universe will provide. I guess what I'm saying is that a certain healthy level of insanity is required to live life to the fullest. Marie Forleo. 4 3/4 cups water.

Roast Pork with Rhubarb. Well it's once again the season for rhubarb to start appearing in the markets and across the blogosphere. I can't say I mind. I love the tartness that rhubarb adds to sweet recipes like these Orange-Rhubarb Scones. Or to crumbles and pies with sweeter fruits that are also starting to come into season. I have to confess, that, although the days of dowries have long past in France, my wedding agreements with D. may. And this Seriously Good Grilled Zucchini Salad. 2 pork fillets, tr...

On Book Covers and Crème Brûlée. I've had a version of this conversation with a caviste. Not only do we judge by covers but we get attached to the outer appearance as well. On, Shelfari. A book website where people can create their own personal shelves, there are often twenty or so cover-options for a single book and you can even upload your own. I mean if you've read the book, you know. What's inside. Why should the cover art matter? Because, yes, after starting in a moment of craziness. And that's real...
