I love summertime staples that remind you of home. Pesto, is my personal memory-evoker. The smell of basil (in any form) makes me week at the knees. Beautiful photos!

I’m very sorry for your loss.
The recipe, looks super inviting, and I think I know what I’ll be making with all of those mushrooms I bought on Saturday.

I’m so sorry for your loss. Food is always a comfort, but especially dishes that remind you of people who are no longer here–it’s nice to think that loved ones will always live on through recipes. And this looks like a great one.

I am always looking for quick picnic things that no one else will bring :) This fits the bill. I don’t know you, but can’t help passing my condolences on anyway. It sounds like your grandmother lived a full and vibrant life, and I hope your family is comforted as you remember her.

I am sorry to hear about your grandmother’s passing. No matter how long someone lived and how full their life was, it’s hard at first to live without their physical presence. I am sure your grandmother is still around you and is so proud of what you are doing! Your mushroom pate looks wonderful and I’ll have to make it soon! Sending lots of good wishes! Silke

Although nearly always delicious, mushroom pates are so hard to make photograph well. This one is beautiful.
Cooking something so earthy and picnic-like is a sweet way to remember your grandmother.
