Since having our son in March, my husband and I have had a chance to go out on a decent amount of dinner dates (perks of living in the same city as my parents) but it dawned on me this past Saturday afternoon that I hadn’t done what I love to do as often: cook an amazing meal at home.
While suffering through Eat Pray Love (sorry, Julia), I plotted through our Saturday night feast at home. After much back and forth, I decided to make an Italian dinner. So, with those main objectives in mind, I decided to do a truffle-infused mushroom and pea rigatoni with an heirloom tomato salad and a cheese plate dessert. And of course wine was on the menu (but when isn’t it?).
In exchange for the meal I was set to prepare, I asked my husband, an amazing photographer, to do a simple task and document the preparation, execution, and consumption of the meal. Below are his photos of our wonderful Saturday evening.
Thank you to my darling husband, Ian Merritt, for documenting this wonderful evening. It felt good to be back in the kitchen.
