Dish of the Month September Round up
Many thanks to all the lovely food bloggers who joined me and Sue (A Little Bit of Heaven on a Plate) for September Dish of the Month. The blog event where we cook the recipes of Nigel Slater. Sue and I are cooking our way through the Kitchen Diaries II but any recipe by Nigel can be entered for this easy-going challenge.
Nigel Slaters Autumn Chutney is the entry from Dish of the Month co-host Sue from A Little Bit of Heaven on a Plate. This chutney is packed with green beans, onions, tomatoes and spices, it looks so good, I can almost taste it!
Baked Figs with Marsala and Honey is the simple dish brought to us by Jacqueline at How to be a Gourmet. The simplicity is typical of Nigel Slater and Jacqueline describes the dish as naughty but nice!
Courgette and Apple Cake provides two of your five a day in cake form, how much better can you get? Well, this one is also organic, so I dont think you can get any better! Many thanks to Dom from Belleau Kitchen for bringing this healthy cake to Dish of the Month.
Chocolate Damson Cake, another superb seasonal cake, this time from Linzi at Lancashire Food. I love how it looks like a fruity, fudgy brownie!
Cod in Soured Cream Sauce is a fascinating dish which Galina from Chez Maximka created using Nigel Slaters Lemon Tarragon Cod recipe and her own memories of a similar dish that her Mum makes.
I hope you will join us for Dish of the Month in October, the Linky will be posted on 2nd October.

Gluten Free Noodle Recipe Round Up
It's the end of March- and that means it's time for the Gluten-Free Noodle Recipe Round-Up. A few weeks back, certain individuals saucily tossed out an invitation to fellow gluten-free bloggers: Show off your gluten-free noodle love!
So grab a fork, some chopsticks, and a good sized spoon. These recipes are not only gluten-free, they're twirl and slurp worthy.

Summer in Santa Monica and a recipe round up
 |
| Farmers' market beauty in Santa Monica. |
The first notes from our
Santa Monica summer sublet:
After living in the brittle high dessert of Northern New Mexico for three years, I am drunk on oxygen. I walk Ocean Avenue cradled in moisture, intoxicated, breathing deep. And although we sleep seventeen blocks from the Pacific, I smell the ocean in the sheets. I wake with the sensation, the awareness of the sea. It infuses the day with an unnameable pleasure I can almost taste. If I could live on air I would eat the on-shore breeze with a spoon.
Steve has found his own source of bliss at Caffe Luxxe on Montana Avenue. Rich, caramel Italian espresso with the perfect artful brush of creamy foam. If further persuasion is needed to lure him into staying here, I only need to whisper, “Una bella tazza” and he'll be putty in my hands.
Things are looking up.
