I am going to have to pick up the April issue of Bon Appetit. These prosecco floats from the pizza/prosecco  party are calling my name. Sounds perfect.

Friday Flickr Five

With temps in the 60s on Thursday (and forecast for today) I’m hoping to enjoy the taste of spring this weekend. Daylight Savings Time on Sunday will help. (Sunlight at dinnertime? Dare to dream.) I’m loving the early morning light streaming through the windows. It’s invigorating.

On with the Five:

  1. farmhouse
  2. adjusting the contrasts, the highs, the lows, are a daily issue and sometimes you find a fine balance that works even if it is not perfect
  3. good morning sunshine
  4. past their prime
  5. fresh air

Have a wonderful weekend! I’m hoping to get into the city for a (long overdue) visit …. see you Monday.

Charleston Food + Wine Festival

Where would I like to be right now? Charleston, SC for the Food + Wine Festival. Springtime is a fabulous time to be in Charleston, with the warm sunshine and flowers in bloom. Saturday night’s sold out “Food + Wine with a View” features four female chefs, including Barbara Lynch of Boston’s No. 9 Park (and B&G Oysters – my favorite – I now have lobster blt on the brain).
