As summer winds herself down and starts to tangle with the first chills of fall, I'm left wanting to keep her to myself for just a little while longer...while secretly flirting with fall on the side. This weekend I'll be roasting peppers to freeze for the winter and processing 20+ pounds of tomatoes that I picked from my garden yesterday...all the while, snacking on first of the season Honeycrisp apples and fresh pressed apple cider. Putting food back for winter is a nostalgic and romantic way to preserve the season while allowing yourself to move on and celebrate the bounty of the next.
And celebrating food is really what this post is about today. I could hardly contain myself when I first spotted these videos by Tiger In A Jar. I've never seen a recipe presented as a video like this before and I can honestly say, I am in love! Talk about celebrating food...they are serious eye candy, dare I say...food porn, even.
This one for pesto is equally tantalizing...
What did you think? Will you be cooking this weekend? I can tell you that I'm going to have beets and basil in my market basket tomorrow...
Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful weekend! XOXO, Cindi
