I love throwing parties. If I had a truly disposable income and an untiring pool of friends, I’d throw a party a month.
Sage
Biscuits and Gravy
I may have gone to The University of the South, but trust me, I have no delusions of being a southern belle. I’m a Yankee through and through, from the pace at which I walk to the way I say ‘pecan’. But as someone who has spent a solid chunk of her time there, I do have an appreciation of the South and of southern cuisine.
Sage & Prosciutto Focaccia
Pumpkin & Ricotta Ravioli
I bought a pasta maker with a gift certificate from last Christmas. Almost a year later, I’m finally using it. So. Typical.
A Pinch of Leftovers: Polenta with Sage Pesto and a Poached Egg
Sage, Prosciutto, & Walnut Pesto Tartine
Not quite a year ago, a friend and I stumbled into a small, romantically lit French-inspired eatery in the West Village for a quick bite before heading around the corner to see a play.

That’s why I took a vacation day just to visit a pumpkin patch on Friday. I had to get several small pumpkins and gourds for my fall tablescape…because this is what matters to me in the world. However, something had been troubling me all week; that something was pumpkin ricotta gnocchi.
