Food as Art2/25/2013  Lunch on Pine Street Chris made this salad for lunch yesterday and said that the paints were part of the presentation. She used a couple of hard boiled eggs I made the day before. My method of cooking hard boiled eggs is an adaption of the Cooks Magazine shallow boiled method. Click this link to look at the method. Note that these eggs are steamed for 8 minutes rather than the 10 minutes in the recipe.

B Patisserie Open2/11/2013  Offerings at B Patisserie After the crepe place closed on California Street near our home, we were wondering what would take its place.

Sunday I was going out for a walk and someone told me it was open - so of course we went to check it out.
