Scallop aguachile on an avocado wedge. Did I need more food after the risotto? I did not. And yet. Parsley and mint from the balcony garden. 🍽️🌱🥑🌿 #cookingsky #homecooking #aguachile

Squid ink risotto with tomato, saffron and ramp butter. Despite having a difficult time extracting the squid ink (first try with this - messy!) and the dish’s weird color, I am happy. 🍽️🦑🍅🍚 #cookingsky #homecooking #risotto

Good haul!

Very low on food! Scraped together some cheese, bread, celery, peanut butter, shrimp cocktail, pickles…okay, I guess I have some food. 🍽️🧀🍞🍤🥜

I used up a bottle of ketchup and a bottle of mayonnaise on the same day. 1) Play the lottery? 2) Prepare for the end times?

Your menu options have not changed. Stop lying.

Happy July 1st from my balcony garden, hangin' on through the heat! #gardening #urbangardening #balconygarden 🌱🍅🌶️🌿🥬🍆

Gomae made with day lily buds, foraged from next to the driveway upstate, squid with green sauce made with herbs from the balcony downstate. Living off the lands! 🌱🍽️🦑🌹 #homecooking #cookingsky #urbangardening #foraging #balconygardening

Last year I finally got enough simultaneous Anaheims for a chiles rellenos casserole. Will lightning strike twice??? 🌱🌶️ #gardening #urbangardening #balconygarden

When life (or The Peekamoose restaurant) gives you risotto, and you can't finish it, make risotto cakes! 🍄🍚🍽️

First upstate cookout of the season! Local trout and strawberries, favas, oyster mushrooms, potato, squash and balcony lettuce trucked up from downstate that turned out to be unfortunately very bitter. Alas. #cookingsky #homecooking 🌱🍽️🎣🍄🍚🥔🥬

Skate with mushrooms & tarragon, baked potato that I accidentally split more than I wanted to. These are the times you wish you had some chives lying around. For camouflage! 🍽️🐟🍄🥔#homecooking #cookingsky

Busy risotto! Shrimp, asparagus, mushroom, parm. Also ramp butter. #cookingsky #homecooking 🍽️🍤🍄‍🟫🧀

Hardening off is in full swing. Except for the cukes, because they are wimps. Cilantro, dill, parsley and over-wintered tarragon. Yes, I plant my herbs in alphabetical order. Is that weird? Sorrel, chard, Komatsuna (spinach-mustard) starting to really get going. It the time of hope! 🌱🍅🥒🥬🌶️🍆

#nokings Manhattan came out today.

Just waved to our plumber on the street. He probably didn’t recognize me.

Overheard on 2nd Avenue: Young woman: I went on a date with a guy - I’m pretty sure he was gay. Friend: Did he pay? Young woman: Yeah. Friend: So what’s the problem?

We march against war, corruption, masked thugs in the streets, against assaults on our schools and our medical facilities and our body autonomy and our constitutional rights, and against the criminally narcissistic (and also just criminal) idiot in charge of all of it. No Kings. See you there.

Saying goodbye to soup season with a nice bouillabaisse. #cookingsky #homecooking 🍽️🍤🐟🥬

What not to say to your professor over email: “I’m not going to be in class tomorrow. Are we doing anything important?” What not to say to your professor during class, after being asked to present your homework assignment: “I was absent last week. Can you go over what we did?” #academicsky

I don't wanna get in a fight with @tomtomorrow.bsky.social, but there can only be one wonder cat, and his name is Laszlo, #laszlothewondercat. The two boys do look an awful lot alike, though.

Busy puttanesca! Homemade sourdough fettuccine with mushrooms, spinach, shrimp, squid and the other stuff that normally goes into puttanesca. 🍽🍅🍄🥬🧅🧄🦐🦑

For my Very First Sheet Pan Recipe, I went with the NYT's approximation of shrimp fried rice. I added celery, onion, carrot and fried egg. And it was pretty good, although the rice really stuck like hell to the foil I lined my baking sheet with. Shown here with a smashed cuke salad. 🍽️🦐🥕🧅🥚
