It's All good! No really!

I have been cooking my way though Gwyneth Paltrow's It's All Good cooking book.

I'll spare you my attempts at taking good food pictures, so I'll just post some of her pics! Which are gorgeous!!

Before it even came out there was already so much to do around her book, her health advice and het eating habits...

Anyway, I could be bothered, I like het website Goop! I've tried and tested, to great success, some of her recipe's!

Got my brother hooked on her detox teriyaki chicken without him even noticing it!

( Muhahahaaa, yup, that delicious chicken is actually doing you good)

And learned a lot of new food stuff thanks to her!

So when her new cookbook came out I just had to have it!

Now she got me making my own pickled jalapeños, discovering kimchi and 'brewing' some, realizing the health benefits of fermented foods,completely hooked me on miso paste! ( I now miso paste everything!) , spike my veganaise with chili flakes , and she uses chimichurri!!!

What ever people were writing and giving her bad press about this book,

I love it!!

Learned so many great new flavors and foods!

Pick it up! And give it a try!!

Or come over for diner! You'll probably get one of het dishes in your plate!

Steph!! I wanna read about your new Donna Hay obsession!!

Ever since Chantal from Step by Step ( Antwerp, Lombardenvest) showed us this book, I just can't stop thinking about it!

I was already sold at looking at the cover and that blue trimming around the pages!

ooooh can't stop thinking about how this book would look good in my interior!

but can stop thinking about how this book wouldn't make my interior look good...

Thanks Chantal!

And no thanks... Maybe I should distract my mind with that Woolrich hat!

I think Marc Grossman, without even knowing him, is starting to become one of my favorite persons!

With his Bob's Juice Bar in Paris ( read our Paris Lunch spot blogpost)

then Bob's Kitchen,his previous books, one all about bagels 

( looooove a good bagel with cream cheese, jam, and an egg sunny side up - i know sound weird - tastes awesome!!), and one all about muffins,

I think he just wrote the best book ever about the best subject ever!

New York desserts!!

Carrot Cake, Cheese Cake, PanCake, Pecan Pie, Apple Pie, basically all the best things ending with - cake and -pie.

All American New York recipes for a wanna be New York girl.

Before the movie, read the book!

Don't panic, it's a tiny one with 213 pages...

How can they make a hour and a half movie out of such a small book you wonder?

Well I could fill a movie with shooting Johnny Depp from every angle!

Great read, great writer, will be a great movie!

BEAT IT! Locals Only!

Accidentally bumped into the universe of the California skate, one afternoon in 1975, and devote the next three years to photograph in the time of the birth of the sport
From Venice Beach and Los Angeles to the San Fernando Valley, Hugh Holland is fascinated by the grace and athleticism of skaters and ‘locals’ that he captures along the beaches or canyons, settings that have given rise to legends such as Dogtown and Z-boys. Published by Ammo, ‘Locals Only’ is an exciting book. His photographs mightl be exhibited at M + B gallery’s booth at Paris Photo from 10 till 13 November ( if you don't see them and the walls, make sure to ask them! They will bring the prints along)

This book won't help my Lords of Dogtown / Z-boys / Jay / Zephys Shop obsession at all!
