Sugary Beignets

These sugary sweet beignets have a secret inside! There is homemade pear jam lurking just under the fried deliciousness. Mmmm... what an unusual and yummy flavor.

The presentation also caught my eye — the fried morsels are laid out in a worn, rustic toolbox. Captured at the Farmer's Market outside of the Ferry Building in San Francisco.

Amazingly tasty, tangy, gooey comfort food from Cowgirl Creamery at the Ferry Building in SF. Best $5 I've spent all year : )

Meringues in Luxembourg

It is a strange thing to realize I am so, well... obsessed with photographing food in European light that I am now planning a trip back over there not for the museums, not for the architecture, not to visit friends, not for a romantic getaway, but for no other reason than to shoot food. Ah... bliss : )
