Tina making loads of ricotta gnocchi by hand. One by one. We've been lucky to have Tina and Titena this summer, even luckier they've decided to stay on to work with us during the school year. And we're going to need them in September when we open for dinner and Sunday family lunch. These girls are talented, ambitious, funny and strong. It is so inspiring to see the next generation of Lynn making their mark.

My mother in law passed away a year ago today. I can still hardly believe it since I quite honestly thought she'd live forever. She has been my main inspiration and seemed super human to me. I met her when I was 21 so have known her for my entire adult life and the latter part of her life. When she retired from a life time of academic grant writing to intern in a Boston gallery so she'd be knowledgeable enough to open her own contemporary art gallery in Maine. She withstood the devastating sudden loss of her husband. Closed up the gallery and was a Vista volunteer on the Ute reservation in Durango CO. living in a trailer. Then spent to rest of her life painting and traveling. As I struggled to balance my ambition while raising my children she told me life is long. That single bit of advice kept and keeps me going. I think about her every day. She informs everything I do in ways that are so ingrained they are barely noticeable to me. She gave me most of my food memories which are entirely about good food shared with people you love, with a few good drinks and music. When writing up this weeks menu I realized there a few things on there that are meals we ate together. I wish she could see what Marianne and I have built I know she'd love it.

Our vegetable fridge way back in early May. I definitely prefer the second photo. Loaded down with greens, beets, carrots, edible flowers, mushrooms and stone fruit. So many possibilities. Marianne will be posting the menu on our story in a bit. First photo by @elizabethladuca

Happy birthday MFK Fisher. A major inspiration. How could she not be with this gem "it seems to me that our three basic needs, for food and security and love, are so mingled and entwined that we cannot straightly think of one without the others. So it happens that when I write of hunger, I am really writing about love and the hunger for it, and warmth and the love of it and the hunger for it...and then the warmth and richness and fine reality of hunger satisfied..." Yup! In honor of her and thanks to @mushroomsformyfriends chanterelles with eggs on the menu today. #wisforwanton
