Perfect for a Picnic
April 19, 2012
When I was back in Syracuse browsing through Wegmans, I discovered a combo for the perfect snack. Their fresh apple cider bread, with actual pieces of baked apple throughout, is amazing enough eating it alone. But topped off with brie and a nut/raisin spread made it complete. Easy enough to pack in your picnic basket the next time you’re looking for an outdoor snack.
I’m off to Maine for a few days to shoot those beautiful New England coastal towns and delicious local seafood fare. Be back next week! x
FIELD Beef Jerky
March 5, 2012
A few months back I introduced you to my friends’ new all-natural beef jerky, FIELD. In the months following, they’ve grown tremendously, distributing nationwide and becoming ever more popular. Saturday afternoon we all met in Williamsburg at Moon River Chattel, an enchanting antique shop near the waterfront that is filled with inspiring treasures and the perfect backdrop for our shoot. Capturing not only the uncut beef jerky, it was fun to shoot the other ingredients and spices used in their three flavors, Original No. 3, Honey Spice No. 11 and Teriyaki No. 23. To keep up with their latest news visit their facebook page, website or get yourself to the grocery store for a taste!
Food at Fashion Week
February 11, 2012
I walked down to Lincoln Center this morning to check out what New York Fashion Week’s Autumn/Winter 2012 collections had to offer. While one doesn’t normally feature food over fashion at the shows, I of course scoured the tents to find cute giveaways I could photograph. No Starbucks this season, but I grabbed one of NYFW’s signature Diet Pepsi skinny cans with an adorable napkin and straw designed by Jonathan Adler. I may have to collect a few more of these straws this week. They’d make for the perfect Fourth of July or Memorial Day drink accessory. And for a quick fix snack, the free Fiber One bars were the perfect bite.
I’d also like to announce that I’ve finally joined the world of Twitter. All the meals in between those shot for the blog will be posted and shared! You can follow me @camerainkitchen. Have a wonderful weekend! x
