My friend Anna is an excellent cook. I've never had a bad meal under her roof. Tonight was no exception. She invited me over to her new apartment (which, by the way, is lovely) for dinner and catching up. I hadn't seen her in a few months, the last time being when she was in NYC working and we managed to squeeze a few dinners into our schedules. So it was great to sit and chat and drink red wine and eat.

First of all, when I arrived Anna was at the stove making doughnuts. Yes, making doughnuts from scratch. Who does that?!? Oh, so amazing were these chewy, sugary little puffs. Delightful. For dinner she made delicious crab cakes and fresh green salad. Not a bad way to spend an evening I must say. 

Thanks, Anna!
