New video alert! This is how I make one-pot pasta

New video alert! This is how I make one-pot pasta fagioli - super simple, so satisfying, and can even be fully vegetarian or vegan if that's how you roll. Pasta, beans, tomatoes, aromatic veg... what's not to love?

First of all, the headline is life. 🥟 But more

First of all, the headline is life. 🥟 But more than that, it was a treat to talk about my wild, wacky, and ever-changing career with @eleveline for Bucknell Magazine - the place where I started cooking (sorta), meeting deadlines, loving art even more, going on ill-conceived road trips, and playing harder than I worked. And sometimes doing it all simultaneously!

Every Christmas we change the star pin on this ornament to note one of our most exciting travel destinations of the year. And this year it's... New Jersey, because we've spent all of 2020 at home.
🌟
Here's hoping the star gets a different spot in 2021! -CB

Loved seeing the Sinclair dinosaur balloon in toda

Loved seeing the Sinclair dinosaur balloon in today's Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade! As a lifelong dino fan, he's one of my favorite mascots, and we got to see a few classic examples along Route 66.
🦕
According to @amnh, the Sinclair balloon first debuted in 1966 and was renewed in 2015. Click on their bio to see the original! -CB

A year ago today, we finished the last half mile of our Route 66 journey on foot, walking a few blocks from our parking spot to the 66 to Cali booth on the crowded Santa Monica Pier.
🚐
It was a hectic finish to the trip, fighting LA traffic to get there before sundown, but the rush of the moment made it all worth it. There's not that much we'd do differently if we drove the whole thing again, either! -CB

Worried we might go the entire year without a national park or lighthouse stamp, we were able to check off both on a mild November Saturday.
☀️
With the temperature in the 60s, we took a day trip to Fire Island and climbed the 182 steps to the top of the lighthouse. The sun was warm, the breeze was stiff, and the air smelled of the sea. And my new lighthouse passport book leads off with our one and only touristy trip of 2020. -DC

The historic El Rancho in Gallup, NM truly had the charm of yesterday and the convenience of tomorrow, just as the sign promised. ✴️ The well-preserved interior felt like a movie set, but the convenience I was most interested in was the LAUNDRY! Cheap and right off the lobby, so I could get it done while we ate dinner (and drank John Wayne's favorite margaritas) in the 49er Bar.
🧺
The staff might have thought I was a little off, but good laundry was much appreciated on our Route 66 trip. -CB
