Harvest feast!

In honor of our pumpkin carving party I cooked up a fall feast!

Acorn squash glazed with butter, maple syrup, and salt and pepper.

Covered with a cranberry apple relish-- cooked with huckleberry honey, sugar, nutmeg and lemon zest.

The side is red chard sautéed with onion, lots of garlic, butter and red pepper flakes.

Also the first of our seed varieties!
Squash seeds toasted with a butter, maple syrup and cracked salt coating the other side pumpkin pie spiced seeds.


Not pictured mulled cider with black rum.

Breakfast tarte at tatte

I missed this place so much-- mozzarella tarte with prosciutto. Would have been better hot but is still super delicious.

Will post photos of the other thing I got but Jane reads this blog and its a present for her so you will all have to wait!

Sunday brunch at Enid's

Went out w Justin for brunch today in greenpoint. I got biscuits and gravy and Justin got crawfish cake.

Also French press for the table! Yum!

Beef chuck tenderloin stuffed w Gorgonzola cheese.

Justin and I made dinner last night using the recipe from the good eats episode Tender is the Loin II.

We couldn't find tenderloin so we had to use chuck tenderloin so it wasn't as tender as it could have been. Still great with the cheese though.
