LEGENDS OF THE FALL FRUIT SALAD.

Seasonality gets confused in the heat of Southern California, and summer tends to shamelessly bleed its way into both spring and fall. This year has been an especially slow fade into cooler climes (as I write this, it’s still in…

NUTELLA SUPERFOOD SMOOTHIE.

My loves. Supposedly it’s fall. Last weekend, I even found this gorgeous leaf turning leaf on the sidewalk. But here in LA, it’s currently nearing 90º. My longing for chilly mornings wrapped in blankets, set to the tune of rain…
