Sneak peek of what's coming up shortly #ontheblog.

Finally done with Thanksgiving leftovers. I had no time to cook today so you better believe I was happy to find these pallote cacio e uova (egg and cheese "meatballs"), plus a batch of sauce, in my freezer. #dinner #vsco #vscofood #vscocam #italianfood

Remember when everyone hated these? 😉 #brusselsprouts #gloriousvegetables #thanksgiving #thisisfall

Leftover crema al pomodoro (cream of tomato soup) + leftover vegetable farro soup = my excellent lunch. #lunch #lunchbreak #homemade #soup #italianfood #zuppa

Beautiful baguettes and "big bread" at Bread & Water Company at the Belle View shopping center. Love this place! #alexandriava #bread

#sunday breakfast with @taramdesmond's herbed biscuits from Choosing Sides (sans herbs), @mrswheelbarrow's caramel pear preserves and my green tomato jam.

Almost too pretty to cook! #gloriousvegetables #roots

Aromatics matter. I always add sage, garlic & onion to my pot of beans. Sometimes bay leaf and/or rosemary. Love those fall flavors. #italianfood #thisisfall #pastaefagioli #homemade #soup

My latest batch of giardiniera painted in @waterlogue. How awesome is that?! #giardiniera #preservingitaly #preserving #gloriousvegetables #diy #homemade #waterlogue

Greens for soup; roots for roasting: Roast covered at 400 F for 45 min or till just tender. Peel (if mature), dice or slice, dress with EVOO, good vinegar & salt while still warm. Add thinly sliced red onion or shallot if you like. How do you cook #beets? #gloriousvegetables #vegetables #farmersmarket #thisisfall
