This weekend I didn’t do very much cooking because we ended up eating out at restaurants a lot. We’ve been making the rounds of our favorite places in New York, because at the end of the month we are moving to Boston! Andrew is going to be doing doctoral studies in music and I am … Continue reading Sunday at the Shore
Dairy-Free Fudge Pops I was inspired by the heat wave we had last weekend to make popsicles—possibly the most summery treat of all. These are dairy free and super creamy and delicious, with just the right amount of sweetness.

What WAS totally blog-worthy were my favorite cold rice noodles from Yun Nan Flavor Garden! We went out for noodles after doing a long run on Sunday, and it was hugely satisfying to scarf … Continue reading Hello, Summer
