I love soup no matter what time of year it is, especially since I got a Vitamix which makes soup-blending a breeze. You can find my go-to soup recipes here and here . However, it's hard to find a hot soup that vibes with the summer months, so when I found this recipe for corn soup, I had to try it right away.
Last week, the entire marketing team at Integrative Nutrition went bowling at Bowlmor in Union Square. Usually, the women in our office sport cute outfits made up of dresses and skirts, but because of our evening activity, everyone opted for shorts or pants.
I am very happy to say that this weekend was our last in New York City for the next 5 weeks. As much as I love it here, the summers on this small, crowded island tend to be humid, hot, and slightly smelly. Although I was dreaming of a cool breeze and the sound of ocean waves, I thoroughly enjoyed a run in central park, a picnic in the sunshine, a birthday dinner with friends, and lots of baking!
I hadn't baked in a few weeks so I thought I'd come back onto the sweet-treat scene with a tart, fruity, creamy, crunchy dessert that I had for the first time when my friend Lauren of Coloring the City brought her version into work. She adapted her recipe from The Quinces and the Pea's Rhubarb Bars.The photos truly don't do this delectable dessert justice.
On Saturday night I was invited to a birthday party of a friend who is turning 30. The theme of her party was "30 is Sexy". On the invitation she said to wear something that makes you feel HOT!
