Happy Friday! I’m really excited for this weekend, as it’s the first one in a while with no major events or travel planned, and I’m looking forward to trying out a few new recipes. We’ll hit the farmers market in the morning, pick up some vegetables, and relax in the kitchen. What about you? Are you headed out to a market this weekend? What’s been showing up there? What are your plans for all those June berries and fresh vegetables? What’s cooking?
This past week, we gave you all of our favorite pack-and-go meals for a long day of travel. If a car trip or plane ride is in your near future, take your pick! A dish like this cool noodle salad with creamy peanut sauce or couscous with cucumber and feta make a mid-flight meal you can look forward to. Fruit-filled energy bars and deluxe trail mix raise flagging spirits, while Asian potsticker dumplings make a surprisingly satisfying one-bite meal. Take a look back through all our recipes from this week for even more road food inspiration!
 Q: My friends and I recently went on a 3-day kayaking-camping trip. We didn’t have room for coolers so we had to get creative with meals.  Our stand-by is PB&J, fruit, and mac & cheese, but we’d like to class it up a little! Any ideas for meals or ingredients that keep well on a multi-day camping trip?
Yesterday we showed you the first round of awesome small kitchens from Apartment Therapy’s Small Cool Contest, which just recently finished up. (See the winners here!) Haven’t had your fill of impressive small spaces yet? That’s good, because we have 20 more kitchens for you today! More colors, more storage ideas, more smart solutions for small kitchens of all kinds.
A few weeks ago, I retold the sad tale of the late rhubarb meringue tart that met its end when it slid off the plate and managed to coat nearly every part of the open fridge I’d intended to put it into with smears of curd, puffs of meringue and crust of crumbs. Rhubarb, although not to blame, and I took a break after that, and it might had continued longer had I not been haunted by an Instagram commenter (hi!) who urged me to try my hand at a rhubarb cream cheese danish. I imagined the tart pink rhubarb against a lemony slick of cheesecake, enveloped in a puff of orange-scented pastry and I could not bear it.
However, as I began researching danish dough, my interested waned. I don’t think it will be a bad project for one day, but all of that envelope folding and yeast and butter and carefully timed steps seemed a bit much for six to eight folded pastries that wouldn’t survive beyond the breakfast meal. And certainly not when it is finally high pie season, that blissful period from May to September when we in this hemisphere are lucky enough to have more fruit than we know what to do with.

My go-to snack for these moments is comprised of three parts, and it goes with me on every single road trip I take!
