Mom’s Banana Bread
When I moved out to LA all on my lonesome after I graduated college, my mom gave me the best present possible: a spiral-bound notebook filled with her (and my aunts’, and my grandma’s, and my great-grandma’s) recipes.
NonSociety Lunch Meeting
At 8AM this morning, I launched myself out of bed and into a hideous pair of sweats and made my way to Agata & Valentina, our local fancy foods place, to buy ingredients for this afternoon’s NonSociety lunch meeting.
Moving Day
At the beginning of July, we moved from Hell’s Kitchen to the Upper East Side. I am not exaggerating: moving day was one of the most physically taxing days of my life.
Talbots
This afternoon, Meghan invited me to come with her to Talbots to sample the wares.
Chandelier Obsession (Again)
I salivated over these on a mosey through Gracious Home.
Macao Trading Company
After dinner, Kendrick and I went to the Macao Trading Company, which incorporates iron from a Pennsylvania penitentiary and repurposed Model T parts into its decor - very gothic and elegant.
Allow me to introduce you to my favorite restaurant…

Gary Vaynerchuk from Wine Library TV suggests pairings such as Frosted Mini-Wheats and 2008 Pappas Wine Company Pinot Gris, and 2005 Altos de Luzon with mac & cheese (my favorite, of course).
