lamb patty sandwich with avocado and radish greens
It was a week of reinventing leftover lamb (rehashed as sandwiches and pasta sauce), a week of takeout coffee, a week of political upheaval in Iran that will rewrite the way we get our news. In a vain attempt to reconcile these extremes, I overspent my budget by several dollars, a figure that would have risen considerably higher, were it not for the timely intervention of a post-wedding party in Harlem on Saturday, and a barbecue in Queens on Sunday. You might say that I lacked focus. If you were talking about my food photography, you’d be right.
