How to Make Ricotta
I’m in Korea! After resting for a week (…or actually two), I’ve finally eased my way back into the kitchen. I never realized how difficult it would be to cook at home versus a commercial kitchen, but it’s been fun making what I’ve learned for my family. Things don’t always come out as polished and nice as I want them too, but it just makes me realize how much more I need to practice and learn.

Georgia On My Mind
We have a guest post! By none other than my sister, Michelle. She took a recent trip to Atlanta, Georgia, where she revisited old favorites from her college days and new finds from more recent openings. Enjoy!
Thanks to a dear friend’s wedding, a short jaunt to Atlanta was in order. Now, Atlanta is home to southern hospitality (It’s not a myth!), the Braves, Jimmy Carter, and my alma mater. Having spent my formative adult years in Atlanta, it holds a special place in my heart, and I was excited to head south for the first time since graduation! While Atlanta isn’t known as a gastronomical hub like New York or Los Angeles, there are some culinary gems worth venturing to. Case in point? Fat Matt’s Rib Shack.

La Petite Rose
It’s been my general goal to visit all the renowned patisseries in Paris before I leave, however, I’ve slowed down quite a bit since I first arrived. My “To Visit” list is ever growing, but my lack of progress is quite embarrassing. It’s a combination of knowing there’s always tomorrow, the fact that I like revisiting places I already know, and lastly because I don’t like to go to patisseries by myself. All of those reasons canceled out when a couple of my friends and I made it a point to visit La Petite Rose before I go to Korea for the holidays.

A Priori-Thé
I’m only back in Paris for a few days and then I’m off to Korea! I’m super excited about spending the holidays with my family, but before getting too ahead of myself, I just want to relax and enjoy being in Paris sans all the responsibilities that come with being in school.
