Enjoying every minute of the weekend. It’s been a knitting and reading sort of situation, and I just finished The Lord of the Rings after 6 months of off and on again reading. Such a fantastic book! ♥️ . All the books and knitting have been perfect for the very wet weather today, and my general temperament right now. Something about this time of year makes me just want to stay inside and do all the cozy things. I wonder if reading too much Tolkien has effectively turned me into a hobbit 😂 . I’m making good progress on my sweater, though, and am excited to finally wear it once it’s done 😊️👏🏼🧶 Wishing you all a wonderful weekend! . . . . . . . . #foodstylingphotography #foodstylingprops #foodstylingandphotography #foodstyle #foodstylist #foodography #foodstyling #pie #cakeslice #piedesign 
Cutting up some lemons for my all-time favorite soup—avgolemono. Avgo-what, you might say? It's a very traditional Greek soup that translates to egg (avgo) lemon (lemono) soup, and it starts with a homemade chicken stock, then in goes the lemon and oregano, and the eggs are added in at the very end to keep them from cooking/curdling in the soup. 🍋 . It's what my mom and dad would make for me whenever I was sick as a little girl, and it always makes me feel comforted + happy. I have a very old recipe for it in the blog archives at Adventures In Cooking, I'm currently re-testing it and will let you know when the updated version is good to go 😆 . So far the recipe itself has held up perfectly, it's just the very loose non-precise instructions that need a bit of updating 😅 . What about you? Do you have a favorite soup, or a traditional family one? 🍜 . . . . . . #firstweeat #foodphotoshoot #photographytips #eatpretty #foodphotography #recipeoftheday #foodphotographyandstyling #foodphotographer #foodphotographyprops #foodphotoprops #feedfeed #foodphotography📷 #foragebyfolk #darkfoodphoto #foodphotononstop #foodfluffer 
The fruits of a day spent in the woods with mushroom magicians @tournantpdx this past fall. So many amazing mushrooms out there, it was absolute heaven! 🍄😍 Although some of them are especially hard to find (swipe for the sneaky matsutake reveal!) 👀 . To make the harvest last longer, I sliced and sauteed the ones I brought home, salted them a bit, and then froze them in little Mason jars. That way I can just thaw out a jar and have delicious mushrooms at the ready to be enjoyed in any dish 👍🏼 . I want to try my hand at drying them next year, my mom let me borrow her dehydrator but I've never tried drying mushrooms with it before. I'm assuming I should slice them before putting in the dehydrator, but if anyone has any tips or advice I’d love to hear it! 💚 . . . . . . . . #mushrooms #mushroomforaging #mushroomhunting #intothewoods #seasonalfood #seasonaleating #farmtofork #nofoodwaste #fromfarmtotable #naturalfood #healthylifestyle #scrumptiouskitchen #makeitdelicious #inseason #sourcelocal #produceisbeautiful #eatrealfood 
Wish I still had some golden zucchini from the garden so I could whip up this delicious summery quiche again. There's a layer of caramelized onions nestled inside underneath all the creamy egg filling, and MAN is it good. 👏🏼 . If you want to winterize it, you could thinly slice beets (like, VERY thin) and lay them on top, or even potatoes or shallots. It would still make for a lovely spiral effect and a wonderful flavor, I think. ☺️ . Hope you have a wonderful week head! 💚 . . . . . . . #seasonalfood #seasonaleating #farmtofork #nofoodwaste #fromfarmtotable #naturalfood #healthylifestyle #scrumptiouskitchen #makeitdelicious #inseason #sourcelocal #produceisbeautiful #eatrealfood #tasteofsummer #foodstyling #foodstylingandphotography 
Ready to crack into into the weekend! Today is my and @bealubas last zoom call with our virtual workshops attendees, and I am going to miss them so much! . There’s something so uplifting about being able to talk with folks in your field that share the same struggles and experiences. I love that feeling of community so much. It’s what I miss most about in-person workshops, and I’m so grateful we were able to create that online through through our virtual group discussions ♥️🙏🏼 . After that, I’m going to tackle putting the Christmas decorations away and *actually organizing* them this year so they’re not spread out randomly between a dozen boxes. There were definitely some ornaments that didn’t make it to the tree last year because I couldn’t find them 😂😬 . Then we might take the dogs to the park to run around, but that depends on if this terribly cold wind keeps up! It really feels like winter around here today ❄️ . Wishing you all a fantastic weekend!! . . . . . . . #foodstylingphotography #foodstylingprops #foodstylingandphotography #foodstyle #foodstylist #foodography #foodstyling #darkfoodphoto #rusticphotography #moodyphotography 
Winter citrus season is nearly here, my friends! 😍 I can't wait to get my hands on some sweet sumo mandarins again, they peel so easy and just have the most wonderful bright flavor. . The recipe for this sumo citrus agua fresca is up on AdventuresInCooking.com in the recipe archives, if you're looking for a ray of liquid sunshine to brighten up your winter 😊 . I'm thinking about all the wonderful citrus fruits I want to cook with over the coming months—key limes, Buddha's hand, kumquats...there's too many to name! Do you have a favorite? 🍊💚🍋 . . . . . . #firstweeat #eattheworld #heresmyfood #foodandwine #foodiegram #farmfresh #eatpretty #citrusseason #todayfood #farmtofork #recipeoftheday #forkfeed #tastingtable #seriouseats #foodoftheday #insiderfood #wintercitrus
