recipes i’m obsessed with:

• these shoyu ahi tuna poke quinoa bowls from i am a food blog. pretty much all of my favorite things in one dish.
• chicken with 40 cloves of garlic over at nom nom paleo. yes please.
• speaking of garlic, i think having this garlic confit on hand can’t be a bad thing.
• this saucy shrimp creole from Tieghan at Half Baked Harvest.
• i’m planning on making a batch of this carrot-ginger dressing from 101 Cookbooks.

objects of desire:

• i can’t stop thinking about these Farylrobin Rylie Clog Booties over at Anthropologie.
• pretty much all of melissa sonico’s jewelry.
• i have zero need for an oyster plate at home but if i did, this would be the one.
• is it weird to lust after salad dressings? please say no.
• i’m not due for a new pair of running shoes just yet…but when I am, they’ll be the Brooks Transcend 3.
• the voyager tote from this is ground. pretty much the ultimate in chic travel bags.

apps, books, news, stories, etc:

• i’ve started the popsugar 2016 reading challenge. the list of categories is great and has enough variety to keep you interested and push you out of your book comfort zone.
• speaking of books, this one left me breathless. do yourself a favor and read Ruby by Cynthia Bond.
• losing david bowie this month was a gut punch. reading about his life as an everyday New Yorker put a smile on my face.
• i wasn’t aware of this cookbook when it came out last year. i am now. Fast Food, Good Food by Andrew Weil is about to be my healthy-cooking-in-the-new-year textbook. extra points for the beautiful photography by ditte isager.
• changing the way we think about food. a great read from goop with some gentle, helpful reminders.
