cranberry-orange breakfast buns
When my husband had a bit of, uh, bonus awesome free time on his hands this summer, he got into the curious habit of running while not being chased*, which led to him taking part in his first 5K a few weeks ago. To celebrate, we had people over for a little New York brunch (that is, bagels and lox, no, not homemade, not when they’re this good) back at our apartment, and, still trying to dig out from under our overzealous apple-picking, I made apple cinnamon buns. I didn’t think they were a big deal; I mean, they were good, just your standard cinnamon bun with two apples, diced small, scattered over the filling but it turns out, you cannot causally mention homemade apple cinnamon buns on the internet without causing a RECIPE PLEASE ruckus. I should know this.
I really had full intentions of sharing the recipe (though technically, I just did) but you see, the only thing more worrisome than having more apples than one can fit in their apartment is The Day The Apples Run Out, and that happened before I had a chance. And as they did, October became November and I started getting Thanksgiving on the brain, which basically leads to me bringing absurd, barely haul-able hauls of various winter squash, cabbage, brussels sprouts, potatoes, and baskets of fresh cranberries home with exactly zero recipe agenda for them. [This morning’s repeat haul is currently glaring at me from the dining table as if to say, Shouldn’t you be getting to work on us and not talking to your friends inside your laptop again? Such nags!]

5 Big & Beautiful Dutch Ovens: Plus 10 Recipes to Show Them Off — Dutch Ovens 2013
A couple years ago we shared a few of our favorite Dutch ovens, plus recipes to put them to work. But products come and go, and many of our 2011 picks have since become unavailable. So we thought it was time to revisit our favorite pot and look at the current crop of Dutch ovens for fall cooking.
Recipe: Quinoa & Winter Squash Bake — Recipes from The Kitchn
When we think of meatless sources of protein, foods like beans, tofu, and cheese generally top the list. But one of my favorites is quinoa (shark-jumping be darned!) — not only is it a delicious and complete protein, but it’s also rich in iron and fiber, vegan-friendly, gluten-free, and unprocessed. For ethical farming reasons, I always make sure to buy Fair Trade quinoa.
This season I’m baking quinoa into a savory pie with roasted winter squash and aromatic herbs and spices. As a main dish for dinner or lunch to eat during the workweek, it’s packed with fall flavor and nutrition.
Nigel Slater’s (Short and Charming) 5 Essentials for the Home Cook — Expert Essentials
British cook Nigel Slater often states that he’s not a chef, he’s a cook. I would go further and say that he is a cook’s cook. He somehow manages to be charming yet authoritative, comforting yet elegant. His approach is casual but he gets the job done. He is well-known and beloved in England where he recently topped Jamie Oliver and Delia Smith as Britain’s favorite celebrity chef (er, cook) and his star continues to rise as more and more people outside of the U.K. discover his delicious recipes and beautiful cookbooks.
We’re very happy to feature these short, charming essentials from one of our favorite cooks!
