new work

just a quick hello and some pretty pics from the august issue of martha stewart living. andrew got to shoot these beautiful zucchini recipes styled by sarah carey and art directed by dimity jones - if you haven't already, check out dimity's blog three to one! also check out the july/aug issue of coastal living here for some tasty recipes i styled with a wonderful group of women.

can't believe how quickly the month of july has flown by! seems like it was just last week we were in california for the holiday and a fun cookbook project i styled with photographer jason varney. we had an awesome dinner at the bar of suzanne goin's newest project tavern - great wine list, corn fritters, steamed mussels with chorizo, and braised pork cheeks! also got to see our good friend jen and catch up.

white heat

we thought this all white, no-cook, shaved veggie salad seemed the perfect way to keep cool on a record breaking hot temperature day in the city. we've been busy shooting fall root vegetables for FNM and got to come home with lots of goodies, but the last thing we wanted to do was turn on the oven to roast them. this post is adapted from an old bon appetit recipe inspired by a salad from al di la in brooklyn. we had never eaten many of these ingredients raw but think you'll love the crunchy texture & earthy flavor - a delicious and beautiful start or side to any meal!
