The Weekend Dish: Anticipation

Happy October, my dears!

What are you up to this weekend?

Lydia is hunkering down at home to finish her wedding details.  Only a month to go!

I’m heading north to celebrate friends getting married among the Redwoods of Mendocino County. How romantic is that?

Speaking of Ina, did you see Liz Lemon loving her on 30 Rock?  So happy Ina has hit primetime!  I’ve already pre-ordered her new book.

Any thoughts on Top Chef Just Desserts?  I’m loving the challenges—every step is so high stakes with pastry!  I’ll bake last night’s winning cookie as soon as I get back.  Sylvia Weinstock was raving about it.

Any Angelenos want to join me for Artisanal LA?  It would be fun to get a group together and support our local food culture.  Plus…

They’re having a wooly pocket herb garden workshop!  Who can resist that?

Mario has a vegetable butcher! Can’t wait to check it out next time I’m in NYC.
