Fireworks at Coney Island Brooklyn, Rendezvous En New York

While everyone is outside in this belligerent, and disrespectful cold celebrating the new year, I am inside trying to keeping warm and trying to be introspective about what this year…Read More

🏖️The beaches are open, well except this part

🏖️The beaches are open, well except this particular one because there was no lifeguard on duty. But people are still taking their chances. You can get here with a short ride on the A to your spot on the sand.
🏖️Will you be visiting the shores this Summer and where is your favorite beach to linger at?

I made this dish back in December for my mom's bir

I made this dish back in December for my mom's birthday and I was craving it again. It's a fettuccine pasta made with a beetroot sauce that I saw on Nadiya Hussain's show, Time to Eat. The sauce has basically 5 ingredients. It's quick, easy, healthy, and a little spicy. But, don't think that simple can't be delicious!
Have you tried any new recipes that are now mainstays for you? What are they? I'm always looking for inspiration.

If you can catch some sunshine this weekend, it's

If you can catch some sunshine this weekend, it's perfect cherry blossom watching time! There are a few places to catch them in NYC but my favorite is on Roosevelt Island cherry walk because of the wide open space and no time limit and the tram in the background and it's free ninety nine.
🌸As far as I know, the Kwanzan variety, double flower bright pink fluffy flowers, are not blooming yet so you still have a chance to catch them.
🌸The white blossoms (Shirotae, Shogetsu, and Fudanzakura) are in full bloom and falling and the pink single blooms (Rosea, Rosy Cloud, and Yedoensisare) are at peak as well.
It's such a serene and peaceful thing to experience watching the petals fall and enjoying the fragility of these flowers.
🌸 If you aren't near any blooms at all you can take a virtual walk through @brooklynbotanic and watch the video from 2020 's blossom season. It's like a scene from a Studio Ghibli film. Their selection of blossoms is unmatched. And if you go in person, the hills and the Cherry Esplanade makes for the dreamiest shots. A visit is free with a Culture Pass if you have a library card.
🌸Have you ever taken a time out and enjoyed "Hanami Sakura"( the art of watching the cherry blossoms) before? I have a post all about and the link is in the bio.
Happy Spring!!

Another weekend, another food project. I bet that

Another weekend, another food project. I bet that you are wondering "What's in my bowl?" . This time it was Pa Kimchi (scallion kimchi) and I can truthfully say this is one of my favorites. Spring is scallions season so they are very easy to find and in abundance at the store.
Kimchi if you haven't had it before is one of the more popular Korean foods that all Koreans have in their fridge. It is served with anything & everything oe just with rice alone. There are hundreds of variations and the most popular is made with cabbage. I've made cabbage and pepper kimchi before so I wanted to try a new variation.
Despite the strong aroma of scallions, when it's fermented most of the bite is taken out of it and it's so flavorpacked that this works even with a bowl of plain rice. With the addition of the main ingredient, spicy gochugaru ( Korean red pepper flakes) it won't be bland at all.
I was so fortunate to get all of my ingredients from the Korean supermarket, but it is really far from me. A business owner in my neighborhood, who happens to be Korean, volunteered to help me and buy them for me because I wasn't traveling because of quarantine. So I had to make it as authentic as possible. I got the seal of approval from her and that meant the world to me. She was so touched that I enjoyed her cultural foods. Of course, she was gifted with a jar. You never know where you'll receive aid from.
This time it wasn't a vegan recipe but it can be veganized by replacing fish sauce with a vegan broth. I was inspired by @maangchi to make this from her buchu kimchi (Chinese chives) recipe. That's next with possibly the addition of pajeon (vegetable pancakes). 🤤
I have never enjoyed scallions the way I did with a jar of this. I'm sure that I kept people at distance with the aroma but we're still social distancing so all the better.
What did you get into over the weekend?

🍫I made vegan fudge last weekend. Have you grow

🍫I made vegan fudge last weekend. Have you grown up eating fudge? It wasn't something that was common in my house growing up but once I tasted it from a box of Easter chocolate my mom ordered from one of her co-workers, I had to keep that in my life.
🍫On the weekend is when I do most of my cooking. It is when I am for the most part left alone to do what I want, without dealing with nagging errands and chores. Then I can concentrate and enjoy the process of cooking the most and undoubtedly when my food turns out it's best.
🍫Fudge is very simple to make and this vegan recipe only has four ingredients for the cooking challenged. It can be whipped up in 30 minutes flat and you'll have the spoon and the bowl to lick until the fudge sets. This decadent treat is made with dark chocolate and perfect when you just want a bit but not too much.
🍫Have you ever made fudge? Do you enjoy chocolate treats?

💕I can truthfully say that I'm not big on Valen

💕I can truthfully say that I'm not big on Valentine's day because of the commercialism of it all. But, I with the idea of spreading love to people you care about especially if it is beyond a romantic relationship.
💕Yesterday, I was surprised by my nephew with the a gift box from one of my favorite chocolatiers @mariebelleofficial this place holds special memories for us and I was so touched that he remembered. With everything going on I was especially touched.
💕He presented it to me with a dozen roses and a beautiful card that I will be keeping because it was so darn cute. He did it just because. And to top it all off he remembered my favorite flavors when he picked out the chocolates. Ahhh sugar! Their chocolates are tiny works of art. From the top left going clockwise, he picked pistachio, coconut, espresso, and wild berry.
💕And let me tell you how Valentine's day was so far at the back of my mind because my hands were full with things at home. This surprise was exactly what I needed to stop and appreciate the opportunity to have my nephew love me that much. 😍♥️💗💖💕🍫
