Flavor Buffet
Happy Friday, everyone!
This week felt long so let’s keep this Buffet intro short. I’m here for fall and yet summer just won’t quit. I’m ready for blankets, warm muffins, and socks. And yet… it’s still not here.
So while I go organize my sweaters and contemplate new boots, take a look at this week’s selections. They’re sure to get you in the mood for the new season, even if it’s taking a little bit longer to arrive.

Eight awesome slides packed with information about nuts. I love the one all about almonds. Nuts!
Discussing the trend of blankets being available for chilly guests during dinner. While at a restaurant. Not the worst idea…
Can you guess the “Color of Fall 2019”? It’s a shade of orange and I love it…
Cook
Kung Pao Chicken - we’ve made this before, but never from Bon Appétit. I’m intrigued!
Crispy Rice and Egg Bowl with Ginger-Scallion Vinaigrette - lots of elements that will probably create something absurdly delicious. Make sure to use Tamari to have it be GF.
Pumpkin Coffee Cake Muffins with Cinnamon Honey Butter - well these look sublime! Breaking out the GF flour soon to make these as a fall weekend treat.
Dine
Guess what?! My newest edition to NYC has arrived! Bar Bites Beyond: NYC Volume III is here and ready for your next trip. Filled with photos and so many memories, I cannot wait to go back to create volume IV…
Here’s my local Boston guide, too! This list is updated whenever we find, and love, a new restaurant. We added Southern Proper just last week!
Heading to Vegas? I can help with that adventure, too!
Maine is gorgeous. Visit this fall and use my dining guide!
Shop
My new Cuyana tote finally arrived and it’s lovely! It’s quite large so I’m finding that it easily fits everything I need for the work day and then some. Definitely using it for travel as well - perfect for weekends away!
Speaking of Cuyana, I’m now hooked and eyeing a lot of their accessories. I love monogrammed items and I won’t deny it. This little set is very appealing.
A friend recommended this heated hairbrush which straightens your hair while being brushed (magic?!). I’d love to try it before I (possibly) buy it.
Have a great weekend!
