RECIPES!

i love to cook, bake, and make colorful happy food that makes other people happy! things that influence my recipes: my love for olive oil, my italian roots, the mediterranean, my time living in idaho, california, new york city, and georgia, fresh produce i see at the farmers market and grow in my garden, simplicity and the love for the seasons, whimsy, chocolate, my mom, my grandma, vintage everything, and celebrations because what is life without joy?!
