From Where We Stand: Our Weekend in Photos

A glimpse into our editors' lives: Here's how the world looks from where we stand. We were all over the place this weekend—Texas, Vermont, the NYC Wine and Food Festival...

Right after de-boning my first chicken (the pictures of which I'll spare you), one of my weekend highlights was being Kenzi's Vanna White at her cocktail demo at the Plated stage at the NYC Wine and Food Festival. (Pro tip: Always stir for longer than you think you should!) —Leslie

 

This weekend I went apple picking with Andy Brennan of Aaron Burr Cidery as part of a small event co-hosted by True Ink and Food52. —Haley P.

 

I spent Sunday and Monday in cold, beautiful Shoreham, Vermont, picking and tasting apples (some wild and foraged, some cultivated) and drinking a lot of Shacksbury cider. —Caroline

 

Alexis, our photographer Rocky, their toddler Oliver, and I had a home shoot on Saturday, where we photographed some holiday tabletop stories and one very exciting feature on arrangements made with dead (or, okay, dried) flowers, like this lacey hydrangea situation. —Amanda S.

 

Hanging out with the Apicius text, the oldest cookbook in the western world, compiled in the first century C.E. —Taylor

 

Just my personal hero, Kristen, revving up the crowd and blender at the Texas Book Fest. —Sarah
