This is one of those things that I wish I had invented! A heat barrier for table tops! What a great idea. With a runner of insulated beige linen-polyester, your Chippendale sideboard or farmhouse table will not suffer when it receives piping hot dishes straight from the oven. It measures a generous 4 feet by 13.75 inches, is finished with tassels and comes with magnetic sign cards to identify each dish. The cost is $35.

Sundays, post summer, are all about Sunday dinners. For me pot roast is the poster child of Sunday dinner because growing up this is what we had. Many of us revert to cooking the foods that we grew up on. There’s something intriguing about food memory and trying to capture the childhood tastes that signify love and warmth. For me, this is Sunday pot roast with roasted winter vegetables.
Tillamook Cheese is some of my favorite cheese. I love their sharp cheddar. It’s hard to find in the Northeast (it’s from Tillamook, Oregon), but I’m able to find this little gem in a small Connecticut market. When I spot it I always pick up a few extra for good measure. Life certainly is good!

I picked up this beautiful piece of smoked bacon from New York City’s German specialty store, Schaller & Weber. I’m making a homemade bean and bacon soup and I’m absolutely delighted with this gorgeous piece of smoked bacon.

What took so long?!! I love potato chips and I love sriracha. It’s like Santa came early this year!
My long awaited birthday present finally arrived early this afternoon. I had been wanting a 19th Century Korean Chest for a couple of years and decided that this was the year that I would get one. This particular chest is about 5 inches shorter than I wanted, but have decided that I still love it. Currently, the chest is sitting in my formal living room waiting for me to move it to it’s perfect spot in my house. I may put it at the end of a bed and use it to store extra blankets or I may use it as a side table next to a comfy chair in the living room.

I picked up these beautiful Spring ramps while I was in Cambridge, MA as they were so beautiful. What a perfect Spring treat!
