daily eats: 8.29.11

August 30, 2011

Pin itMonday started like most – with a yoga class. But then the similarities ended. It was a long day of traveling. I had my last work trip and so I’m currently down south in the land of shrimp and grits. For the record, I’m only allowing myself one meal of grits – do you [...]

Pin it I’ve always loved a good tart. (Thankfully my photography/blogging skills have improved a bit from the last one too!) Using puff pastry makes things so easy – in addition to tasty – and when it’s topped with caramelized onions and bacon? Well, I’d say it’s about perfection. You’ve got a buttery, flaky crust, [...]
