Limes! They're only in season here for a few weeks in the whole year. A friend gave me a tip that she buys tons and freezes them and then uses them all year long.

Pasta with Fresh-Shelled Peas, Favas, Bacon, and Mint

The first good tomatoes and figs (figs!) of the season. Pictured here with some baba ghanoush, salad, and cabbage. A pretty entrance in our neighborhood.

It's still not too hot here and the bougainvillea's gone wild.

Hi Jennifer - the bento box is from "mon bento," I got it in Paris on the rue des Rennes.
