Curry & Brown Sugar Holiday Snack Mix

Is anybody else craving simplicity this holiday season?

Butternut Squash Ravioli with Walnuts, Sage & Orange Brown Butter

When Adam and I were dating, we spent our first Valentine’s Day together around the little dining table in my apartment.

Gougères from The Cook’s Atelier

Gougères are part of a classic Burgundian apéritif, served with a glass of bubbly or wine. These airy little cheese puffs are made from savory pâte à choux dough, utilizing the same technique used to make sweet éclairs and profiteroles.
