menu ideas for each occasion 2024 and 2025 posted by andrew ritchie at 12 29 pm no comments labels magazine review 11 16 2025 martha s red experiment martha s love hate relationship with the colour red is well known to those around her she has banished all red flowers from her gardens yet admires the crimson tones of autumn leaves particularly on japanese maples she rarely wears red clothing or lipstick but will if the occasion calls for it in decorating too she prefers restrained neutrals calming greens and pastel blues to the louder warm tones on the spectrum but when she purchased her property in bedford new york in 2000 she embarked on a daring decorating colour scheme for one of the houses on the property red in what i believe was the summer house the 1770s colonial on the property once inhabited by the previous owner ruth sharpe and prior to the complete renovation and restoration of the buildings on the property martha used red as the foundational colour to unite each of the rooms in this house throwing all caution to the wind she enlisted the help of kevin sharkey who was then the decorating editor at the magazine to help her realize her vision she was initially inspired by a set of red roll down blinds that were used by the former owner in the formal living room which she found intriguing and also by the many red hued decorations artworks rugs and fabrics she had collected over the years but had never used the historical use of red in chinese and european decoration furniture and porcelain was another guiding factor for martha she went all in and confidently incorporated these elements into the mix a chinoiserie chest of drawers and an armoire a chinese screen asian prints on the walls red patterned damasks and toile in the bedrooms the effect is bold but enveloping and still adheres to martha s preference for monochromatic spaces albeit in a more dramatic way one is still presented with a space with a cohesive palette and atmosphere which is always important to martha s design sensibility light shades of green were used as a counterpoint to the rich saturation of red particularly in the bedrooms upstairs which called for a more serene palette red was still used however as punctuation throughout the rooms and hallways as well as an upstairs sitting room guiding the eye from one space to another seamlessly this colour scheme was ultimately just an experiment the house was eventually gutted and renovated from the ground up and the use of red in its rooms only lasted a short while but it was done to the fullest with the best results imaginable photos by jose manuel picayo rivera from the november 2001 issue of martha stewart living posted by andrew ritchie at 1 52 pm no comments labels cantitoe corners 11 14 2025 martha s fans bring entertaining to life to celebrate the republication of martha s first book entertaining i asked the members of the martha moments facebook group in early october to submit photographs of something they had made from its pages they more than delivered what a talented group of individuals it is worth noting too that they are not paid influencers these are everyday americans with an honest love of martha s work who enjoy cooking and baking recipes from her books on a regular basis among the creations croquembouche a pear tart cranberry and chocolate pecan tartlets carrot loaf poached pears classic apple pie mile high lemon meringue pie buttermilk biscuits applesauce spice cake stuffed chicken breasts chicken pojarski various hors d oeuvres martha s eggnog vodka frozen in ice and more i m so impressed below are photographs of their creations anthony picozzi made martha s poached pears a beautiful presentation as always bernie wong and dennis landon made martha s almond pear tart cranberry tartlets and chocolate pecan tartlets their guest nathan schmidt made martha s carrot loaf during a fun afternoon of visiting and baking together bernie s almond pear tart looks perfect dennis s tartlets displayed exactly as they were in the book on a heart shaped copper tray nathan s carrot loaf looks so appetizing justin giannunzio also made martha s carrot loaf and displayed it in much the same way as nathan neither of them knew the other was making the loaf as their submission a fun coincidence justin displayed his first edition copy of the book in the background signed by martha jack mckee made martha s classic apple pie and her mulled apple cider look at that perfect pie crust kevin link made the applesauce spice cake which looks perfect on a martha by mail cake stand kristina kloss made one of martha s classics croquembouche it looks fabulous on another martha cake stand laura guisbert clark made the mile high lemon meringue pie looks divine alison geradot made the kiwi tartlets in the book yum it was the buttermilk biscuits for annamarie pearson they look so fluffy and perfect todd hall made alexis s brown sugar chocolate chip cookies from the book not everyone chose to bake brian utz always uses entertaining as an inspiration when preparing curdite platters paying attention to how the vegetables are prepared and arranged one of his go to martha tips is using a hollowed out cabbage to serve the dip brian s dining table all set up for guests another one of brian s beautiful tables laden with fruits and vegetables inspired by martha s lessons in presentation during holiday time trellis smith and his partner lucas always serve vodka frozen in a block of ice decorated with lemons and cranberries an entertaining original they also serve martha s famous eggnog william silveira and his partner robert ahlers made martha s stuffed chicken breasts from the book they look scrumptious megan dunton endeavored to make several savory recipes from the book including martha s chicken pojarski which she says was a big hit with her family notice the martha by mail danish fern dish megan also made almond stuffed dates with bacon which she says are hearty enough to serve as a small accompaniment or side dish to a main course such as roast chicken roquefort grapes are an unusual but delicious choice as an appetizer the easiest recipe in the book according to megan is the cottage cheese and dill dip she says she will never have cottage cheese any other way for kemp harper and kevin boling it is the style of entertaining that influences their aesthetic at home although they always enjoy making martha s pumpkin soup and cranberry currant sauce from the book each thanksgiving you can read more about kemp and kevin in an earlier post as for me well i ve only ever made one recipe from the pages of entertaining and that s coeur a la creme a pillowy creamy confection using a heart shaped mold one that was given to me by my friends bernie and dennis it floats on a little pond of raspberry sauce thank you to everyone who participated in this fun little assignment it s encouraged me to look a little
