Food is a wonderful thing (especially when you’ve joined a gym)

Ok, I admit to being a little frazzled by the end of the day. The whole New York expectation that you keep on moving and doing something ever second of the day, I think it got to me a bit.
So to settle the nerves I decided it was time for a ‘local’ homemade meal. At home in NZ there is this concept of purchasing foodstuffs that have originated within 100 miles of where you live. So I thought to myself, well how about purchasing goods within 10 blocks from here I live (happy compromise). So, I found a pumpkin and dried porcini mushrooms at Balducci’s, fresh ricotta cheese at Murray’s Cheese and a bottle of Kiwi Sauvignon Blanc from the wine store next to Joes the Art of Coffee.
And just for those of you (Tim) who like to know that I am eatting well, here is the leftover just drying so I can have my handmade pumpkin, ricotta and porcini rovioli for dinner tomorrow night as well (sorry consumed the wine … oops).

I would like to have seen a salad or some green vegetables on the side, but otherwise I am pleased that you are cooking for yourself - good to know where your food has come from - and that it was not mass produced somewhere in Jersey…
