love means...

never having to say you're sorry. and yet, here i am. it has been far too long since i've posted, and i've been trying to all day, but my computer is not recognizing the camera. that's obviously what i get for trying to update my blog from work. sigh. anyway, i will post to share this perfect picture with you, which was taken at scoops ice cream, perhaps the best ice cream in los angeles. it has become apparent to me that i need to conduct bimonthly taste tests at scoops, for research purposes only, as a fellow ice cream afficionado. scoops is famous for introducing new flavors DAILY, and for mixing strange things together that are ultimately the most delicious thing one has ever tried. here is the picture.

the flavors i was trying that day were earl gray and almond-fig. they were ridiculously delicious, of course. scoops is mega-innovative and i will no doubt be trying many of their recipes as time goes on.

coming up from MY kitchen, in the meantime, are peach and raspberry recipes to celebrate summer. peach is what i've been trying to uploday today, and raspberry is happening friday night. so we all have that to look forward to. and if anyone is reading this in the pacific northwest, STOP READING AND GO EAT SOME BLACKBERRIES. they do not grow more delicious than they do in washington and oregon right now. this is one of the rare times when los angles produce can't hold a candle. blackberries and apples. mm.
