Welcome to our recipe blog

This blog is a mother (cz) and son (bdvdb) collaboration. We started it when we lived on opposite sides of the country and wanted to trade recipes. Now we both live in vintage adobe homes in the same southern New Mexican neighborhood and can actually cook for each other. The photo at the top of the blog was taken in the farmhouse we rented on a family trip to France, showing the food we bought at the local outdoor market.
