I had the opportunity to attend a natural light food styling and photograph class with Seattle’s own Lara Ferroni in her new studio space, Spare Room. This class was an absolute treat and has really illuminated the world of food photography and styling for me, literally and figuratively.

I have made these cookies more time than I can count, and they never get old. For the first time, Casey made this batch and I thought I should document this momentous occasion of his first baking adventure.

If there was one food to eat for the rest of my life, it would be broccoli kugel. I love, love, love it.
Perhaps it’s because my mom makes it for me. That’s a strong possibility. It is just so good. You wouldn’t think it would be so special, what, with the simple ingredients. But the texture of the broccoli, along with the creaminess of the cheese and egg is perfection.

I don’t know if onions can be considered a stand-alone favorite food, but they are one of mine. Especially caramelized.
Eating burgers is not a regular occasion for me, especially now trying to fit into a wedding dress in a year. But throw some caramelized onions on one…and even IN them, like in this burger — my ability to resist plummets.

Sometimes you have to work on the weekends…and it sucks.
On these days, I have little to no time or energy to cook dinner or to do anything else besides bitch and moan about working too much.
The good news is that in times like these, there are dishes that take no effort or brain power to make. These foods save us from eating out of a can or munching on crappy frozen pizza.
