margaretandjoy just another wordpress com site margaretandjoy japan november 27 2012 at 5 24 pm filed under artists destinations farming recommendations photos m j a whirlwind trip to tokyo sendai and ishikawa prefecture to visit dear friends brought so much beauty love and delight to our hearts and eyes permalink comments 4 mary lous s garden november 27 2012 at 5 21 pm filed under destinations farming seasonal delights photos m j in late summer with the sun beating down in st michael s we thought it would be the perfect time to take mary lou up on her offer to come harvest some fresh ripe figs from the famously giant old tree in her lovely garden she wasn t there and unfortunately neither were ripe figs our bad timing had us there just between bumper crops but we found some lovely pink flowers instead and a little shed with an overgrowth of climbing hydrangea next to it that seems like a great place for a troll or hobbit to live so charming thanks for letting us sneak around ml and bill mac and can t wait to come visit you both again and to taste those delicious figs next summer permalink comments 2 treasured family heirlooms november 27 2012 at 5 20 pm filed under antiques props photos m j the combined blue flow and staffordshire pottery collections of mary alberta lockwood ott 1882 and edna edwin lockwood 1884 we so lucky to still have so many of these charming pieces at our disposal not to mention still intact permalink leave a comment paupack blueberry farm november 27 2012 at 5 17 pm filed under destinations farming recommendations seasonal delights photos m j the season s last harvest of tiny juicy dark and delicious berries permalink comments 2 tuscany on the eastern shore august 27 2012 at 7 01 pm filed under bakeries cooking desserts destinations entertaining farming food drink foodie stuff recommendations seasonal delights table scape photos m j a magical evening occurred last month on a beautiful farm by the bay in wittman maryland an al fresco dinner to which a few of us lucky souls were fortunate enough to be invited both the meal and setting will be remembered for a long time to come and even more impressive than the natural beauty of the site the graciousness of the host and hostess and the many talents of those who caught grew and skillfully prepared the bounty of sumptuous offerings we gorged ourselves upon was the company itself it s hard to recall an evening coming together so perfectly it was supposed to rain but instead the sun came out and set with a lovely blush to match the delicate charles charles and sancerre rosés some of us had not previously met but we are now communicating regularly and planning future escapades the event and indeed the menu was only casually discussed but suddenly it all seemed to come together as if it had been planned for months this is one of those great evenings that we see in photos and wish we could ve been a part of and delightfully we were and it all came together in a relaxed and flawless manner that is the hallmark of great entertaining thanks to the deft hand and eye and taste buds of delightful carol bean our hostess chef stylist and farmer her charming husband mark connolly a third generation waterman who along with his brother caught the delicious fish we ate rachel vecchio a super talented baker and pastry chef who supplied the desserts and kathy bosin a local blogger who graced us with her presence and charming dinner company we began with the lovely wine and worked in some freshly pressed chilled watermelon juice for pacing then came the red cloud goat cheese served with grilled french bread drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and carol s special handmade fish crackers with sesame seeds and black lava salt while the whole rockfish stuffed with lemon garlic fresh mint and wrapped in fresh fig leaves from one of the farm s three fig trees was grilling along with eggplant brushed with olive oil sea salt the parade of delicacies began to emerge from carol s magical kitchen quinoa cakes with slow roasted heirloom cherry tomatoes yogurt and finished with the tiniest micro arugula we d ever seen fresh honeydew melon salad with blackberries and radish micro greens tossed with a lavender white balsamic vinaigrette barley salad with fresh local raw corn slow roasted heirloom cherry tomatoes with fresh basil and fresh feta cheese freshly grown and made chilled cucumber gazpacho shooters with a hint of lemon and garlic topped with beautiful tiny micro greens all fresh from the garden and carol s french green beans pickled in her own chive flower infused vinegar as we ate drank and enjoyed every nuanced bite of these super fresh simple yet complex culinary delights the dessert table started to beckon carol popped the cork on a bottle of domaine du pre semele and we started nibbling dates stuffed with mascarpone cheese rolled in chopped dark chocolate covered espresso beans then fresh local peaches soaked in a lemon verbena simple syrup dusted with fresh lavender flowers drizzled with balsamic reduction which had been grilled on the fire and finally ripe brown turkish figs fresh from carol s incredibly productive tree sliced over the most delicate and decadent st angel cheese drizzled with local honey it cannot be stressed how delicious this cheese was it will be eaten again soon and then just when we all thought things couldn t get any better rachel brought out her now famous honeyed thyme brown turkish fig crostatas made with local figs picked in nearby neavitt and honey from sand hill farms served with homemade orange blossom whipped cream and an absolutely out of this world rustic peach galette made with peaches from caroline county and served with lavender scented homemade whipped cream wow wow and wow we are still quite floored by it all and frankly just longing for an encore september anyone permalink comments 16 our la kitchen august 27 2012 at 6 07 pm filed under m j shoots photography photos m j on a recent shoot in la we were charged with creating a little kitchen on set and were just delighted by the results thank you so much to the talented kate martindale for your amazing eye fabulous taste and stellar talent as always it was a pure pleasure and our food stylist the lovely rebecca jurkevich not only whipped up some gorgeous delicious pasta dishes but also made a most delightful model if we do say so ourselves thank you all permalink comments 2 oscar s watermelon august 27 2012 at 5 10 pm filed under food drink m j shoots recommendations seasonal delights photos m j this past july in los angeles we were lucky enough to enjoy the craft services of our old friend oscar eufracio who to the entire crew s delight whipped up a variety of healthy and delicious on set treats one of the most simple and refreshing was this array of spicy watermelon pops thank you oscar for the constant nurturing and inspiration permalink leave a comment the deep blue sea august 27 2012 at 4 12 pm filed under art direction cinema cinematography recommendations music box films 2011 we missed this stunner the first time around in theatres last year but just caught in on demand and it is without question unbelievably gorgeous directed by terence davies and based on the terence rattigan play this beautiful swoon of a film starring rachel weisz tom hiddleston and simon russel beale will transport through its sheer loveliness with cinematography by florian hoffmeister film editing by david charap production design by james merfield art direction by david hindle and costume design by ruth myers but this is not an uplifting evening in the making plan on a stiff cocktail or two and an episode of 30 rock or the daily show as a much needed chaser lovely permalink leave a comment a study in victorian cookery july 4 2012 at 12 32 am filed under antiques cookbooks cooking entertaining food drink foodie stuff props photos m j when we purchased this 19th century antique recipe book from a dealer in the uk we had no idea what an absolute treasure we were acquiring we like to imagine this well used guide to the cookery of the day as something often referred to and notated by the likes of mrs patmore from the fictional downton abbey and though its story may be somewhat less dramatic though we did recently hear back from the antiques seller that it was a part of the estate of an artist who had belonged to the bloomsbury set it s impossible to imagine there isn t a story and likely quite a good one from the study of highbrow to lowbrow penmanship in the plethora of entries to the almost perfect browning and spotting on the pages to the fanciful recipes blancmange anyone themselves time has most certainly turned this once utilitarian handbook into a gastronomic work of art permalink comments 11 french chicken paintings july 4 2012 at 12 21 am filed under antiques farming food in art props recommendations images m j we just couldn t resist these antique chicken paintings from a dealer we love in france we are currently mooning over this chicken coop that we have no back yard for so for the time being this little farm inspired antiques indulgence will just have to suffice permalink comments 2 older posts archives november 2012 august 2012 july 2012 june 2012 may 2012 april 2012 march 2012 february 2012 january 2012 december 2011 november 2011 october
