http://peachesandpicasso.blogspot.com/2010/11/belated-b-day-celebration.html
Musings on food, fashion, and art. Tuesday, November 16, 2010. A belated b-day celebration. I had my dear friend Marina over last week for a catch-up-finally lunch a little bday surprise. I had missed her bday (as I am absolutely so bad - terrible - not good at ALL at remembering bdays). To make it up I decided to make her these indulgent chocolate pots de creme as I know she looooves chocolate. Here is to you Marina, best wishes always and many many more to come - Besos. 1 cup coconut milk. Place the sh...

Musings on food, fashion, and art. Monday, February 22, 2010. Genius Art History Poster, my favorite: "Duchamp owns everything". Friday, February 19, 2010. As I work away in my NY tiny winy kitchen, bumping into the other end of the kitchen in half a step and sometimes even into myself, I think how lovely it would be to have a nice big roomy kitchen where you practically need skates, ah! Perhaps something like the ones above. Dream. Images via Abby Sharp. Apologies for lack of posts! Last night Mr. A...

Musings on food, fashion, and art. Wednesday, August 18, 2010. Where did this summer go? To say it flew by is an understatement. I already miss the warm summer days.I feel so lucky that we were able to spend so much time out in Long Island enjoying the beach, sand, sun, lazy mornings, lots of grilling and cooking with farm stand produce. I have been cooking so much and I apologize for not writing all about it here. I made this absolutely delicious snack. Here I am grilling and chilling. 1 c cold water.

Peaches and Picasso: Arroz con leche
http://peachesandpicasso.blogspot.com/2010/11/arroz-con-leche.html
Musings on food, fashion, and art. Wednesday, November 17, 2010. It seems like we have been on a dessert kick here at P&P, something to do with the holidays approaching perhaps. The other night, I longed for something comforting at the end of meal. I turned to my mom's signiature go-to dessert, arroz con leche. I never really considered this dessert growing up, I thought 'it's rice, that's no dessert'! I thought if it's not chocolate, how dare it call itself. Coconut Rice Pudding with Pistachios and Pears.

Musings on food, fashion, and art. Saturday, October 30, 2010. Fall Salad and Crostini. Then we moved on to Roasted Cauliflower with Gremolata Crumbs. Which again was really quickly eaten up. We rounded out the meal with this delicious in season warm butternutsquash salad. Once the fall begins, I cannot seem to have enough butternutsquash! See recipe below. It keeps wonderfully in the fridge for days. I am just finishing the left overs as I write this! Adapted from Orangette,. 2 tablespoons olive oil.
