Quilt from “Fabric of a Nation: American Quilt Stories”, Skirball Cultural Center, Los Angeles, California [Photography]

We made a special point of visiting this nearby exhibit along with friends who are quilters and crafters. It was an amazing exhibit that was comprehensive in scope while being small enough to appreciate every object. – Douglas

Baked Brie en Croute with strawberry jam and pecans [Food]

Brie en croute 1 Baked Brie en Croute with strawberry jam and pecans  [Photography]

Here is something new I haven’t tried before. I had heard about it and even tried it at parties, but this simple dish can be dressed up in a number of ways. For my first try, I topped the brie (or bottomed it, actually, as you invert it to cook) with strawberry jam and some pecans. After tasting I think I could have added more of both, but they certainly added a wonderful contrast to the cheese. My puff pastry sprung a bit of a leak, so I will make sure to seal it better in the future, but otherwise, it was good-looking and tasty. Give it a try yourself.
