my brain is still on martha's vineyard












in the cozy hamlet/charming fishing village of menemsha in particular. it is beautiful, quiet, and still at sunset, and makes you feel almost like you are in a remote outpost in norway somehwere.

and then around a corner, there is soft serve. really great soft serve. at the menemsha galley. so much quaintness and beauty and all your food needs met so perfectly. that is martha's vineyard.

it is time to come back home though. my son started school this week and my daughter started field hockey 2-a-days. much focus is required to fill out and hand in all the right forms, so many forms. get the equipment and supplies in the right bags. water bottles. lunch. check. check. and check.

it wasn't easy to keep my vineyard feeling going so long. i've tried with some small success to imitate the wonderful meals we enjoyed. i've created a few new recipes inspired by the trip, as i tend to do. i really do travel for food. food and inspiration. recipes coming soon. xo, g
