Friday Favorites from The Wanderlust Kitchen, Smitten Kitchen, The Cut, Lisa Leonard and More

October 16, 2016 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 7 Comments

Good morning! How are you?  I just wanted to thank you all for your comments and emails regarding my post about the election. It is so nice to have an intellectual conversation with intelligent, knowledgeable and well-read people about important events and topics. Thank you for taking the time to comment and share your views, I have learned a lot from you and I appreciate you taking the time to share your information.

I love Indian food. The spicy, flavorful dishes are some of my favorites to replicate at home and if they are easy to make than I like them even more. This Indian Cilantro Tomato Chicken from The Wanderlust Kitchen is one of my new favorites, in fact I am making it again today. You can whip this dish up in under an hour, serve it with rice and maybe even naan bread and you have a takeaway meal at home.

Pumpkin is my absolute favorite thing to eat; pumpkin pasta, cake, pie, and bread to name just of few of the items that are on rotation at my house this time of year. I have several “favorite” recipes but I am always looking for more and when Deb from The Smitten Kitchen posted this pumpkin bread yesterday I whipped up a loaf straight away. It is now my new favorite pumpkin bread. 

We are going to a dinner party this weekend and  I am bringing a chocolate dessert tray. These Fudgy Cocoa Brownies will definitely be on it!

Today is the 90th birthday of one of the most beloved characters ever written about, Winnie the Pooh.  I remember when I was little wishing that I lived in the Hundred Acre Woods with those adorable little animals. Happy 90th Birthday Winnie the Pooh! By the way, to celebrate Pooh’s birthday there is a new character coming out, a penguin, which you can read about it HERE.

This stunning book by female photographer Inge Morath is on my list for Christmas. 

I love this post The Unexpected Gift from Lisa Leonard.

Did you read, see, eat, make or find any interesting things this week? If so, please share. I hope that you have a happy, safe weekend.

    I always enjoy David Lebovitz's recipes and musings about life in Paris, and his post about Cold Toast this week was a real delight. He always has gorgeous photos, too.
