Welcome to the wonderful family kitchen of Annette and Gustavo Gutierrez, in their 100-year-old Craftsman home! They previously lived across the street, and when they moved Annette and her husband had big plans for this architectural restoration. One of the biggest feats — and a total labor of love — was their complete restoration of this kitchen to recreate the look and feel of a California dream.
When the Occupy Wall Street movement was born last September in Zucotti Park, just one and a half miles from my apartment in New York City, I started noticing some striking images on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram and so one day at lunch I walked down there.
It wasn't so much the now ubiquitous handmade signs protesting social and economic inequality, corporate greed, and corruption that drew me in, it was the everyday slices of life.

Kosher food blogger Tori Avey goes by a title that shocks some people: She's The Shiksa In the Kitchen! But she says that she wants to redeem this word, sometimes used to refer disparagingly to a gentile woman. Tori uses her blog to show through her recipes and writing how a recent convert found her spiritual path through love, community, and good, heartwarming food with history.

Today we get to tour the kitchen of a culinary professional! Prolific cookbook author Diane Morgan renovated her kitchen fifteen years ago, but she designed it to feel both solid and timeless, so as you will see it still looks fresh and modern.

Doryn is a designer, and like the rest of her Manhattan home, her kitchen is impeccably put together. It is both easy on the eye and easy on the hands.
Jenny and Asmund both work in the field of architecture and do freelance design work. Their kitchen balances function and form beautifully. It's compact, full of light, and a great example of renovation on a budget, $4,000 to be exact. Join me for a slice of pear galette and a tour of this inspired space and edible garden.
Sabrina Soto is an HGTV celebrity, but that doesn't mean she doesn't like to cook and eat meals at home. In fact, as a recent tranplant from DC, maybe someone will give her the memo that such behavior is rare in New York.
