Winter is the time when chocolate fondue shines, and we are here for it. New Year’s Eve and Valentine’s Day are the occasions when everyone says, “Oh yeah, I have a fondue pot!

We know all about the global shipping crisis, but did you also know that the wine industry has been facing an unprecedented Champagne shortage due to recent regional climate conditions? Between wicked winter frost and spring rains, as much as 60 percent of the region’s harvest was reduced, according to Comité Champagne. You see, the appellation’s official trade association sets an annual limit on how much Champagne can be produced per acre—to promise multi-vintage cuvées (and manage prices) in the future. International supply chain issues (caused by Coronavirus) certainly fuel the shortage too, resulting in high-cost and harder to find bubblies this holiday season. That said, don’t be alarmed as Champagne’s biggest night— New Years Eve —quickly approaches. If securing bottles of bubbly becomes a (supply chain) challenge, you might want to consider other sparkling wines to ring in 2022. With a (gin or cognac-crafted) French 75 in mind we’re sharing four fizzy cocktail recipes,

These black-eyed peas with spinach are considered to be a good luck food and are a New Year’s tradition in the South. The combination of beans, onion, tomato, and spinach is so surprisingly delicious that any additional good fortune seems like an added bonus.

Nothing’s better than warm oliebollen, or Dutch doughnuts, thanks to their crisp nooks and crannies and their pillowy centers hidden beneath a dusting of confectioners’ sugar. Adapted from Yvette van Boven | Home Made Winter | Stewart, Tabori & Chang, 2012 These traditional Dutch doughnuts are no ordinary pastries. Crisp on the outside with a cakelike interior that’s decidedly not too sweet, these orbs of deep-fried... devour more   »                

As each year draws to a close, I find myself anxiously awaiting the color trend reports for the following year. There’s just some sort of low-key optimism that comes along with the announcement—the anticipation of new things to come, and the comforting promise of change on the horizon. Sure, the color trends could be taken at face value—corporate-picked hues selected to influence what shades all our favorite clothes and home accessories will be cast in in the following months—but they can also mean much more than that. In the past several years, companies like Pantone, Benjamin Moore, Sherwin-Williams, and more have used the palette as a porthole to a wider conversation about our world at large. Seen that way, the colors chosen as the following year’s trends are no longer just colors—they’re the physical embodiment of our conversations, our ethos, the times we live in.

It’s no secret that we love Champagne . We’ve talked about the best way to go about opening a bottle of Champagne safely and how to keep the bubbles fizzy for days once you have opened it. We've even shared more than a dozen of our favorite Champagne cocktail recipes . But the most important question of all is: How the heck do you store Champagne? Listen, I know Champagne is expensive (even though it doesn’t always have to be), and you may be holding on to a special bottle of Veuve Clicquot or a celebratory vintage for a momentous occasion. When storing Champagne, you want to first and foremost prevent the bottle from breaking haphazardly while also keeping the cork moist and protecting the good stuff on the inside.

New Year’s Eve gets all the attention— Champagne and pigs in a blanket , sparklers and velvet dresses—but growing up in Alabama, it was New Year’s Day that I looked forward to the most. In my family, New Year’s Day meant a giant feast, one that was different from our Christmas celebrations just a week before. And no matter what, we’d have the holy trinity of Southern New Year foods on the table: black-eyed peas , collard greens , and cornbread . Black-eyed peas and collard greens are traditionally eaten on New Year’s Day across the South, to symbolize luck and money in the forthcoming year. Like so many of my favorite Southern foods, they came out of the African diaspora. Black-eyed peas are native to West Africa, a region from which many enslaved people were forcefully taken. And the style of cooking collard greens most associated with Southern food— cooked down until they’re silky and salty, thanks to the addition of a ham hock —also stems from West African cooking traditions.

2020's home trends were... kind of all over the place. Mirrors and furniture made with spray foam insulation (what?), lots of squiggly lines, colors reminiscent of the '80s, and every kind of hunkered-down-in-your-home DIY project imaginable. But we'll cut last year some slack because let's be real—we were all over the place. Thankfully, 2021 mellowed out in the decor department, and we've seen a return to more palatable colors and more intentional choices. More than anything, though, the trends have pointed in one direction: the past. Design and decor is always cyclical, and we know that what was once cool will probably become cool again. That certainly is true if we look back at what was popular this year, and look back we will! Read on for 10 of the most surprising interior trends we saw in 2021.

These homemade potato ruffles are, essentially, potato chips. And yet they’re more than that. They’re fancy-schmancy, shatteringly crisp, conversation-stopping potato chips. They’re sufficiently, satiatingly crisp and crunchy enough to polish off as quickly as you can cook them up. Adapted from Michel Richard | Happy in the Kitchen | Artisan, 2006 My favorite ingredient is the potato. Why? No one ever creates... devour more   »
