Have a house wine

I get unreasonable joy from having a tried and true that requires no thought and is always on hand. Buy it by the case! Regret nothing.

Bolos Levedos Portuguese Muffins

Core memory of a Rhode Island summer. Almost as good as Tony’s.

DEAR POLLY

Have you tried Dear Polly? I own it and am truly obsessed, it wears incredibly well and is true black tea, not earl gray!

Renee Erickson's Cobbler Recipe

The hot sugar crust technique results in a not too sweet, fruit forward cobbler which tastes even better after its chilled overnight in the fridge for the juices to firm up. Her cookbook recommends subbing 6 1/2 pints of marionberries for the peaches for a berry cobbler, which I also recommend.
