I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! The break was nice and much needed, but now I'm back at school, fully rested and recuperated and ready to tackle the hell that is finals period. Before I get back to work, I do want to share some photos of the cooking I did over the break.
The first 7 photos are from my delicious first dinner back at home. My parents were nice enough to cook up my absolute favorite: bucatini all'Amatriciana (ala Marcella Hazan), with bucatini straight from Italy (via Eataly), San Marzano Tomatoes, and crunchy, salty pancetta. To top it all off, we had a delicious appetizer created with all the best of Italy: prosciutto di San Daniele, Mozzarella di Bufala, fresh arugula, and a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
The 8th photo is from the middle of my marathon bake-a-thon, in which I successfully made 2 apple pies, a pumpkin pie, a triple-layer chocolate cake, pumpkin brownies, and chocolate biscotti. This is the start of the cake in the mixer.
