Has anyone else been totally craving comfort food

Has anyone else been totally craving comfort food lately? It's still pretty steamy in California but the fact that we're halfway through October has my brain thinking cozy foods - like macaroni and cheese! 🧀 This Skillet Mac is the perfect fall and winter food and is like a hug in a bowl. Search 'Skillet Macaroni and Cheese' on the blog for the recipe! #comfortfood #cheeselover #macaroniandcheese #itsthecheesiest #fallfood #skilletmeals

Cake baking is typically not my thing but I couldn't be happier with how this beauty turned out! Pumpkin spice cake, cream cheese frosting and a layer of caramel buttercream between the layers - Yes, it tasted just as amazing as it sounds! I found that with a little patience, a few measuring spoons and time, creating beautiful cakes it not as difficult as you'd think! 🍰 🎃 #pumpkincake #pumpkinspice #cakedecorating #cakesofinstagram #bakersofinstagram

I know that this might sound crazy but it dropped into the 70s this week here in California and I found myself reaching for every fleece and cozy pair of socks that I could find! 🍲🍁🍂 Getting into the fall spirit has been difficult given that it is warmer than what I'm used to - But this weather has me craving all of the soups, stews and chili that I can stomach! This 'lightened' Lasagna Soup is one of my favorite recipes on Food n' Focus and I promise if you give it a whirl you'll feel the same way that I do! Get the recipe here -> https://foodnfocus.com/italian/lighter-tastes-like-lasagna-soup #soupseason #fallweather #soupson #fallvibes #comfortfood

Virtual wine tastings should have been a bigger thing before COVID - I can taste delicious wines from the comfort of my home and not need a DD. I was able to sit in on a tasting with @taubfamilyselections today, tasting their wines from Mendoza. I typically don’t reach for Argentinian wines but after today I definitely will be exploring more! 🍷🍷 #bodegascaro #mendozaargentina #argentinianwine #winetasting #virtualwinetasting #malbecwine

Sometimes I forgot about how much I love food styling. If you saw my closet of props you’d be pretty impressed. Layering colors and textures to create beautiful food is such a passion of mine. What do you think? #foodstyling #foodstylingandphotography #passionforfood #taquitos #colorfulfood

Can we please take a moment to talk about my love

Can we please take a moment to talk about my love of bread? Maybe it's the Italian in me or maybe it's just because fresh bread can be such a delicious treat. Today I'm sharing a recipe for the BEST bread over on the blog: Ligurian Focaccia. It's light and airy and loaded with delicious olive oil and salty flavors. You must put your diet on hold and make this bread! Special thanks to @sekahills for sharing some of their amazing olive oil with me! https://foodnfocus.com/feat-side-dishes/ligurian-focaccia #italianfood #liguria #carbsarelife #focacciabread

I’ll never take dining out for granted again after this year! I love to cook but it’s always nice to have someone else clean up the mess! #japanesefood #diningoutside #coviddinner #saladsofinstagram
