Dinner en Blanc

Last Friday night EWW and I attended the Dinner en Blanc in South Bend. The pop up "flash mob" style dinner emulated the famous event in Paris. We were asked to come in all white and bring specific foods and wine as well as all white linens.  We had an amazing evening and even made a few new friends! At the end of the night we sent lit paper lanterns into the night sky and it made for a beautiful sight!

Fall Recipe: Roast Pork Edition

I had never cooked pork before but this Martha Stewart Pork Roast recipe looked delightfully delicious for fall and very simple.  I am always looking for recipes that will serve 6 or 8 so EWW and I can eat leftovers as our week gets busier.
 
We started with a trip to the South Bend Indiana Farmers Market to get apples and sweet potatoes but I'm a sucker for fresh flowers and they always have the best fare for the best deal.



   

My roasting pan situation is pretty dire, but this one did the trick. Not pictured is the gravy that was included in the recipe. I substituted gluten free flour as I have celiacs and it was absolutely delicious!

Oh What A Summer...

As I relaunch my blog the temperatures are still scorching but it's past labor day and I officially call this fall. Before I break out the boots and sweaters It's time to reflect on the summer of 2013. A lot as happened since Memorial Day and it was an incredible season but finally being moved into our home I feel a huge sigh of relief.
