Katie at the Kitchen Door

Globally-inspired, seasonal recipes

0 April 15, 2013 Boston

Flowers for Boston

I was supposed to share a new book and recipe with you today, but I can’t bring myself to. I have never been more grateful for being a homebody than today, when I found myself miles away from the chaos downtown, tucked away in Somerville. But many of my friends and coworkers were there to watch the marathon, cheer on the runners, and soak up the sunshine, beers in hand. Thankfully, they are all safe and accounted for. I so wish that everyone could say the same for their friends and family, but sadly, so sadly, they can’t. My heart aches for everyone who was affected by this terrible thing – my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Love, from Boston.

Spread the word to anyone who needs a place to say, there are dozens of Boston residents sharing their homes with stranded travelers and runners. A list and contact information is available here.

    I just found your blog today and love love love it. Thanks for the beautiful recipes and photos. I called Somerville home for 7 years and am now unfortunately living out in the suburbs. I miss Somerville! I think I’ll move back.

    Keep up the great work!

    […] The lovely Katie from Katie at the Kitchen Door: Katie is gorgeous, inside and out. She’s a perfect example that I am entirely stupid in hating my own freckles, as for some reason I can see their absolute beauty on other people’s skin! Anyway, apart from freckles, Katie is a talented writer, baker and photographer. I love the refreshing honesty in her writing and the generosity in her comments. She also hails from Boston, which as we all know has been in the media for all of the wrong reasons recently. Luckily, she’s safe. And she’s publicised her hometown cause via this post. […]
