Apple, Chocolate + Salted Pecan Bundt
This weekend, the resident jew is, in fact, home alone for the holidays—and in the presence of far too many apples for just one person. The problem is I just don’t love pies and crumbles. The doughs are tricky (emotional melt-downs imminent), the crumbles are too crumbly and dry, and the apples usually end up

Brisket + Kugel: Break Fast of Champions
“Oy the brisket’s on sale on Fresh Direct.” Sometimes I catch myself saying these things and I have to look in the mirror to check and see if i’m greying/turning into one of those people from Shit Jewish Mothers Say. But the day before Yom Kippur, the brisket was, in fact, on sale on

A Light Summer Potato Salad
SOME people would call me a picky eater. I have to admit I do tend to stray away from certain grotesque foods. But other than that, I really do try to keep an open mind. The greatest of the “grotesque foods” is by far mayo. It’s white, gloppy, gooey, fattening and just makes everything creamy

E.V.O.Oh My Gah I’m in Italy (2)!
Yesss I am still in Italia! But no this post is not on Italian food–I promise, I’ll get there. But before I got to Firenze I went to Paris to visit my friend Anjali and to have a European Reunion with lots of our friends. It was a ton of fun and I am SO
