Making a big pot of chili this afternoon, and look

Making a big pot of chili this afternoon, and looking forward some easy, nourishing leftovers this week! I like adding lots of veggies, a sweet potato, and Baharat spice (think of the spices in a warming Moroccan stew), as well as some orange juice, for a lighter, livelier version. Is it still even chili, though?

My lemons this year are gigantic, and so juicy!

Happy New Year from the three of us!
This will be a year of change and adventure for us, and right now we are mostly reflecting and feeling grateful for everything that is so good in our daily life here.
Wishing you joy and depth in 2023.

Thanks for all of your sympathy and healing wishes

Thanks for all of your sympathy and healing wishes for the burns on my hand from Thursday’s bake. I’m happy to report that the healing is going very well— probably something to do with being a bodyworker and having so much energy flow to/through my hands. 😁🙌
Here’s today’s loaf. It’s extra sour, started on Wednesday. I forgot to do do a little structure building work before I put it in the proofing basket, so it’s spread a bit, but really delicious.

Well, baking sourdough in a Dutch oven is all fun

Well, baking sourdough in a Dutch oven is all fun and games until someone forgets that the lid is extremely hot!
Truthfully, my burns could have been much worse, and I am grateful— but my right hand is definitely out of commission for the rest of the year!

It’s been a weird and hard year, and finishing it this way was not surprising at all. Peace out, 2022! ✌️

Aah, that sweet post-holiday moment has finally arrived— pumpkin pie breakfast in an empty house! I missed the moment after Thanksgiving since we traveled the next day, so this feels especially good. 😊

It's been 10 years since this very memorable family story (when Amelia met Queen Elizabeth and cut straight to the chase) went down! It's still kind of hard to believe. 😁

I would say our strongest Christmas morning tradit

I would say our strongest Christmas morning traditions are Filipino hot chocolate (made with pure cacao from near where I grew up, coconut milk, and ginger), and long family walks. While we hear of most of our friends and family freezing in the US, we feel extra- grateful for a barefoot walk on the beach!

Merry Christmas, everyone!

After what feels like quite a lot of work and some

After what feels like quite a lot of work and some serious failures, I now understand why it seems like everyone needs to post pictures of their sourdough successes! Happy to have some near-perfect loaves. I am not even a big bread eater, and my family can’t do gluten, but I just felt like working on a new food project. Baking is so nice in the winter. 😁

Looking for some Christmas feelings, we headed up

Looking for some Christmas feelings, we headed up to Sevilla this morning.
They have the best Christmas market around, featuring local artists/artisans. We finished up our Christmas shopping (stockings only this year), and ate at our favorite Mexican food place. It was very cold when we got into the city, but by lunch time we could sit outside in the sun with our coats off. Perfect Sunday!
