Quarantine supper tonite... Live from NYC...
🎶Let it snow... let it snow... let it snow... a n’or easter packing a wallop of winds... gusts up to 45 mph... a pile of snow... careening through a swath of the eastern seaboard today from the mid atlantic up through the northeast... varying amounts of snowfall expected from 5” up to 30” depending on the storms path... the Big Apple expecting about 5” to 10” tonight and into tomorrow. Snow began about 3pm... flurries at first, belying the blowing and drifting to come... by 5 pm it was an all out blast... hasn’t let up yet.
Seemed like a good day for baking coffee cake... blowing snow... more coffee and tea for warmth... cake to go with. Tried a boxed mix in the pantry... pumped up the spice... added orange juice and zest to the glaze... (can’t seem to leave any boxed mix alone 😂) came out pretty flavorful... the hubs enjoyed a slice with coffee following supper.
Vegetable paella with chorizo... onions... garlic... a bit of poblano pepper... brussel sprouts... zucchini... and tomatoes cooked down into a paste... melding beautifully with white wine... chicken stock and rice... needed something warming tonite to offset the chill of the storm.
NYC is quiet tonite... everyone sheltering in place... the raging storm outside keeping everyone safely snuggled into blankets with steaming cups of tea or cocoa to sip.
Stay warm and safe everyone💕😷
How was your day? What’s on your plate? Thoughts?
