time = kitchen creations

fresh cherries ready for scone baking
this year i took two weeks off from work. it was the most relaxing holiday season i've ever experienced. and to say that, with a very energetic toddler, means it really was extremely chill. with all this time to just be domestic (one of my favorite roles), i was able to spend a lot of time in the kitchen. and not always by myself. my husband is pretty talented in his own right. here are just a few of the yummies that i recorded. 
used the classic scone recipe from joy of cooking and added fresh cherries
cherry scones warm out of the oven to contribute to xmas brunch (with drizzled cinnamon frosting)
d's fishing trip 12/30 with 10 rockfish inspired him to make cioppino for our friends and family for new years eve - amazingly delicious!
not many pea fans in this house, so why not use can of peas from infant-days to make soup
boiled peas with chicken broth, golden potatos, carrots, onion, celery, cumin and dill, salt, pepper, a dash of rice vinegar and used the immersion blender
the peas in this form, a little added pane rustica, were much more enjoyable
