More cookbook food porn. Tapenade…a Provençal black olive spread with a bright hit of citrus.

Alternative Granola – alternative, because it uses dried quinoa and amaranth, in addition to the more traditional nuts and oats.

Chocolate-Pumpkin Bread Pudding, shown here with a scoop of vanilla soy ice cream. This has quickly become one of Omniman’s new favorites.
Weekend wedding
My beautiful niece Kristin was married this weekend in Philadelphia. She’s a hospital nurse and cares for newborns. Ken is an obstetrician; he delivers babies. How perfect is that? They make each other so happy and have so much fun together. I’m thrilled for them.
Doesn’t Omniman look good in a suit? We snuck a photo in the ballroom at the Benjamin Franklin Hotel before the guests arrived. It looked especially lovely, decorated for the holidays.  
Philadelphia is known as “The City of Brotherly Love.” We have a park, aptly named “Love Park,” where one of Robert Indiana’s famous LOVE sculptures is displayed prominently. So what would a Philly wedding be without its very own LOVE ice sculpture?
Look at the menu. “Vegan” is actually a dinner option! [Click on the photo to enlarge.] I love my niece and my new nephew.
