gooped


yesterday was a great day for pictures and pancakes...to say the least. we were "gooped" as they say, by being mentioned in the blog and newsletter from goop, by gwyneth paltrow. we were included in her favorite food blogs along with some company that we are flattered to be with. blogs like orangette, matt bites, what katie ate and some great others, were chosen by goop for being some of gwyneth's favorite reads to sit down and have a glass of wine with after the kids are in bed and her feet are up. having a new auidence is always amazing, and this is a great opportunity to write and take pictures for a whole new group. thanks to eliza and gwyneth for loving the blog, we are humbled, and to all the new readers who we will try hard to please. we hope you all enjoy!





now for some more fun, and our favorite part, the food!! now that we have tried to suck you in to the tart world on our last two posts, its time for a little change...but i do mean little, sticking in the dessert department. simplicity is always something we like to stick with whenever we can, and this is a dish that will take just a little time for a tasty result. try this with seasonal fruit or really any fruit you have around the house!

Roasted Fall Fruit
serves 4

2 cups seedless red grapes
4 plums, pitted and quartered
2 bartlett pears, quartered and cored
1 pint vanilla ice cream
2 tbs honey
preheat oven to 450 degrees F. place grapes, plums and pears in a single layer in a shallow sheet pan and roast, tossing the fruit occasionally, until the fruit is soft, about 24 minutes. serve in a bowl with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of honey. enjoy!

Congratulations! That must feel pretty special!

Roasted fruit with a drizzle of honey sounds great for this blustery weekend! I think we have a new jar of heather honey kicking around somewhere...

We made this last night for dessert and then used the leftover fruit in oatmeal this morning. Mmmm... I'm starting to appreciate fall!

Good golly, I roast fruit all summer, but why never in the fall?

Obviously, time to change that bad habit...
