Chicken Legs with Summer Tomatoes and Basil 23 Aug 2013 | 08:50 pm

Hi From Here 20 Aug 2013 | 07:04 pm
Just a quick note to say hi from here. I’m decompressing for a few days, after dancing the night away at my brother’s amazing wedding. See you all back here in a couple of days. Happy summer! © rivka...
Black-Eyed Peas with Turmeric and Pomegranates 16 Aug 2013 | 07:30 pm
The tricky cold August weather pulled quite a fast one on me. Here I was, thinking I had more time with summer, when we passed the halfway threshold in the last month of “vacation.” Where did it all g...

Cashew Cream with Coconut, Mango, and Lime 22 Jul 2013 | 08:18 pm
Back when I first moved to DC, I joined a book group that was more wine and gossip than it was book discussions. It eventually disbanded, and since then, I’ve listened with eager wistfulness as others...
Zucchini with Basil, Pine Nuts, and Croutons 15 Jul 2013 | 08:08 pm
Well, London may have the edge when it comes to strawberries, but DC is just bursting with amazing fruits and vegetables this time of year. And I’m going to go out on a limb and say that eating that s...

We’re fresh off the plane from London and I have so much to tell you that I honestly cannot figure out where it all begins. Do I start high, with pictures and bits from our unbelievably delicious meal...
