As an Indian-vegetarian, I have fond memories of Indo-Chinese gobi manchurian at community potlucks, rare plates of aloo gobi (when my South Indian Mother would serve North Indian food), and snacking on raw florets dipped in Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing with my dad. Since then, I’ve given up cauliflower. Not because I wanted to. You see, I have a chronic GI illness and the unsuspecting cruciferous vegetable has a rather rude ability to land me in the hospital.

If I’m ever in a weird mood, one thing immediately perks me up: I simply remember that peaches exist. Much like that one classic Anne of Green Gables quote (“I’m so glad to live in a world where there are Octobers”), I’m so glad to live in a world where there are peaches. From mid-July to mid-September, I’m either outside or sink-side, eating blush-toned peaches with juice streaming down my forearm.

With grilling season in full swing, all I can think about are cookout foods. Pasta salad, potato salad, BBQ chicken, hamburgers, and, of course, hot dogs. You name it, I’m drooling over it. I love taking advantage of New England’s summers, and enjoying a cookout with friends and family is one of my favorite activities. If I had to pick just one favorite cookout food, it’d have to be the hot dog. (My friends and I have a running tally of how many we’ve eaten this summer, so I’d say that’s a pretty solid choice.)

I’m sure you’ll agree with me when I say there are certain foods I enjoy, but I can only eat them every once in a while. Either they take too much effort to cook regularly, or the mere act of eating them is too big a hassle. Mexican street corn, or elote, is one of those foods. It’s a delicious, summertime side, and it’s relatively easy to find here in New York City, whether I’m eating at a Mexican restaurant or from a food truck. Even still, I tend to avoid it because it can be messy to consume, and the kernels from the cob tend to get stuck in my teeth. Simply put, I don’t want to deal with that — especially if I’m out and about.

No matter how many room makeovers and professionally staged spaces we see — and we’ve seen a lot — we never fail to be impressed by the power of a simple coat of paint to breathe new life into a home. “Paint is the most transformative tool,” agrees professional home stager Daniel Coffman of Staged Spaces in Monrovia, California. “I always say, ‘new paint … new house!’” And that was certainly the case with this three bedroom, two bathroom home that Coffman and his partner Jacen Crehan took from dingy and dated to fresh and welcoming.
