Hello, readers! I’m happy to finally introduce myself to you, though I’ve been here for some time. For the last two years I’ve worked beside Kimberly, and today marks my debut as a guest blogger in my own right.

Boston vs. New York
I never thought I’d say it. I thought I’d rue the day. It surprises no one more than me, but it is true. I do not miss New York City. It’s been four months since I moved, and no, I haven’t really stayed away. I’ve been back to NYC for weeks at a time each [...]

Season-a-Belle: Fall Recipe eBook
I’ve always found fall to be quite the opposite of spring. Instead of new growth and fresh green, it’s the end of life for many things, brittle brown and bright orange. And instead of coming in like a lion and going out like a lamb, fall starts out quietly and meets the winter raging. This [...]

Chicken Soup for the Soul
I’ve been known to use my prowess in the kitchen to fix any number of ailments: from sweet beets that have helped to mend my broken heart to hourglass pears that have eased my melancholy about summer’s descent into fall, I find cooking and eating to be as accomplished at soothing my worries as it [...]

Bacon, Paired
Bacon’s smoky, salty kiss has long been liberated from the confines of the breakfast table and has made its way into everything from hearty stews to gooey chocolate chip cookies. Like salt, bacon is also a flavor enhancer that lends a unique earthiness to everything it touches. Okay, let’s be honest – everything it touches. [...]

Market Report: The Promise of Pears
After 87 and sunny in Puerto Rico, and 50 and frigid in The Buff, I returned to New York this week to feel Fall in all her crisp-cool, golden-glowy glory. And damn did she feel good! I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, “My favorite season is fall. I’m a New Yorker; it’s [...]

Fall for The Dinner Belle, By Erin
Autumn is awesome. Sure, summer is sizzling, winter’s a wonder, and spring is sweet, but fall is fetching, fall is fragrant… fall is foodalicious. I’m sure the fact that I’m a born and bred New Englander makes me nostalgic for the changing leaves, crisp air and homemade applesauce, but I think there’s also something special [...]

Market Report: Concord Grapes (then, and again)
There are certain sights, tastes, touches, sounds and smells in life that leave imprinted sense memories in our minds. These memories are puzzle pieces of sensory remembrance, linking us back to unforgettable people, places, and in my case, food. The smell of cinnamon apples reminds me of Sunday mornings in fall, when as a kid [...]

Fall Feasting with The Dinner Belle
Last week we sent summer packing and took a look back at my favorite spring recipes, but this week is all about autumn. Outside, it smells like fall, it feels like fall, and though the leaves haven’t yet tuned crimson shades of rust and red, pumpkins have begun to pop their ginger heads at farmers’ [...]
