back to brooklyn


well, my little retreat is over and i'm back in brooklyn. saturday was hot and humid so we spent the day swimming and shade-bathing at lovely taghkanic state park.

i finished both of the tote bags from lotta's book; i think they will make great class projects for brooklyn general. gertie totally inserted herself as a prop in this photo... she's a natural stylist and model.

colleen made tomato marmalade! it tastes just like marmalade, but tomato-y. she sent me home with a jar so i can keep eating it and remembering hudson...


she also made this unbelievably gorgeous tomato tart. it tasted even better than it looks, and that's saying a lot. it had goat cheese and a cracked-pepper-and-parmesan crust, but it's hard to believe it's not a fruity, sweet dessert isn't it? yum...

YUM!! I was totally thinking of a tart the other day when I got some lovely heirloom tomates at the farmers market! What a scrumptious idea...
