We all love classic comfort food recipes. They remind us of home, of childhood, of happy times. But in the summer, comfort foods can be way too heavy. Who wants to eat a giant pot pie before hitting the beach in a bikini? No one. Ever. Instead, try a lighter version of the classic comfort foods. These spinach ricotta meatballs are so good, you won't even miss the meat.
2 cups chopped spinach
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 cup Parmesan cheese
1 ½ cups breadcrumbs
4 eggs
Salt and pepper
Mix spinach, ricotta, Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs and eggs and mix well until it comes together. Season with salt and pepper. Use a cookie scoop and scoop out the batter into balls, placing them on a sheet of parchment. Heat a bit of oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add meatballs and cook on all sides until evenly browned. Serve over pasta.
Makes approximately 25 meatballs

I just read an article that sounded – to me at least – like “a canary in a coal mine” or an early warning of danger. This piece, written by Joe Pompeo, appeared in the May 2020 issue of Vanity Fair magazine with the title “The British Tabloid Invasion” and a subtitle that read, “How the Daily Mail is conquering American gossip.”

Apparently the good old U.S. is a nation of “not great” sleepers. Really? And I thought I was the only one! According to a recent study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention it was revealed that one out of three Americans are chronically sleep-deprived. Yikes!

I think we’re all taken by the incredible mystique of the famous French fashion house, Hermès that has been with us for two centuries and is still owned and operated by the same family. From its beginnings in fine equestrian leather goods, they are – in the tumultuous year 2020 – best known for their handbags and many other items.
My image of Hermès has always been rarified products at equally rarified prices so imagine my surprise when I recently received a very stylish publication of theirs in the mail.
