There are so many good tofu recipes, and sometimes I just love to eat it cold with leftover roasted vegetables (sweet potato wedges and spaghetti squash this time) on a bed of local mixed greens, with peanut sauce (Hetty Liu McKinnon’s recipe) and chili crisp oil.

Matilda’s All-Day Cafe opened about a month ago and I took my little girls there to meet H and her little one for a coffee / play date. The breakfast sandwich (egg based, with avocado or bacon add-on) had a vibrant Calabrian chili spread that melted into the white cheddar——more flavorful than spicy.

Next on my TBR for desert books are The Crossing by Richard Parker and Mapping the Silence by Cecilia Vicuña and James O'Hern (which looks like it will be available through Bookshop in July.)

My friend C and I took ourselves out for a proper Italian dinner last week to Andreoli’s and it was really perfect. We ate the burrata salad and gnocchi with tomato cream sauce with delight, but it was really the fried potatoes that also came with crispy, delicate, leeks that stole my palate that night. And the apricot thumbprint cookies I took home in a white paper bag.

The poor, avoided beets that sat in my fridge for too long were revived by poaching in Anna’s spice mix and then doused in a lemon-Dijon dressing. I had green cabbage that I thinly shredded over the greens, and some sourdough toast alongside.
