Me at 10, 11, or 12 years old (as evidenced by the braces). This might explain one of those things you’ve always wondered about, but could never bring yourself to ask me.

We’re an orange zone once again which, among other things, means that Milan restaurants can only offer take-out or delivery until at least January 15 and each subsequent January weekend. Thank you @clivati_1969 for kicking off my Saturday with your sweet and savory brunchy breakfast: pancakes, brioche con marmellata, mini maritozzo with stuffed with tuna cream and broccoli, ham and cheese croissant sandwich, fruit, and yogurt. 🥞🥝🥐 I’m saving the rose ginger tea for this evening.

My love for polenta knows no bounds, and you can say the same about my love for lemons. This here is lemon polenta cake, recipe by the one and only @nigellalawson. I saw the vegan version in “Cook, Eat, Repeat,” and thought I’d give it a whirl, but I mistook the almond-milk plain soy yogurt, which I don’t have, for almond milk, which I do have. So, I went for the original instead and I’m obsessed — soft, delicate, crumbly, gritty (in the best way possible, thanks to the ground almonds!), golden, and ever-so lemony with just the right amount of zing. 🍋💛🍰 (And now I have a benchmark for when I make the vegan one!)

Benvenuto 2021! Welcoming the new year with lentils and cotechino, the latter of which I couldn’t resist topping with salsa verde (fatta in casa grazie alla ricetta di @lacucinaitaliana). 🪙💚Btw, ‘twas my first time making the sauce and I’m quite pleased that I got that liquidy-solid texture right. 💪 Oxymoronic, I know, but if you know the sauce, you know what I mean. 🥳

My love for polenta knows no bounds, a bond that polenta uncia only strengthened. My latest for @lacucinaitalianausa “butters up” (😉) this ooey-gooey, luscious Larian dish. Link in bio. 💛🤎🥄

Not quite the mountains, but I’ll take it. ❄️☃️💖

🎶 I feel it in my fingers 🎶 Christmas may be a bit off-kilter this year, so I’m immensely grateful that I still have lebkuchen and Billy Mack. 🎄Merry Christmas/Buon Natale! ❤️

Feeling grateful for December 22, a comforting constant as we approach the end of this capricious year. Yes, the coming months remain unpredictable, but no matter what they bring, the days will continue getting longer. ☀️💪🙏
