Ten months have passed. Ten months of outdoor cooking, hiking, eating, picnicking, eating, a little bit of burning stuff, kayaking, eating, snowshoeing, and more eating. But no writing.
This is my "holy hell, do I even remember how to post here?" post. A test to see if I can still make links work, put things where they belong, upload recipe cards to the right place, etc. But I figured I'd include a little peek at the first "real" post coming up -- a recent beach picnic to end all beach picnics. A real live one, not a fake Perfect Pinterest Picnic Photoshoot. And it was awesome. I'll include recipes for some of the things we cooked, like sauteed foie gras with fig mostarda and a seared duck breast with blackberry sauce and duck fat potatoes (sorry, vegetarian friends), and a terrific vegan pumpkin cardamom spiced trail mix that we simply can't stop eating.
But first I need to remember how everything works. Sorry for the 10-month hiatus, but we'll get into that later...
