The Acre Substack Dinner Party | Nights & Weekends
This month is themed around Alexis DeBoschneck's new book Nights & Weekends, including a recipe feature–Everything Bagel Tomato Panzanella
I am loving settling into this community on Substack. There are so many brilliant creators, and I am being inspired everyday to create, cook or learn something new.
Each month I will pull together my curation of what I am loving into a themed dinner party, with tableware and additional ideas to round it out. This is going to be so fun to see how these evolve over the year. Pour yourself a glass of wine and join me at The Acre Substack Dinner Party.

Oh friends this is an exciting one. I am a huge fan of Alexis deBoschnek’s first book To the Last Bite, and when I heard she was writing a second book called Nights & Weekends, I couldn’t wait to flip through the pages.
Nights and Weekends: Recipes That Make the Most of Your Time - A Cookbook by Alexis deBoschnek will be released on August 12 with a mix of recipes for weeknights and weekend entertaining, bringing ease and fresh ideas to both. This is a perfect book heading into the height of summer produce, preparing meals for the end of summer gatherings and leading into the business of back to school and fall routines.
This month, I am throwing a Substack Dinner Party around Nights & Weekends, including a recipe feature from the book–Everything Bagel Tomato Panzanella.
Setting the Table
This affair would be set at the entrance of the garden, to take in the lush and overflowing garden beds. The menu makes a perfect light lunch or dinner for four, an intimate gathering as you soak in the peek of summer. I love an Orange Wine here, it would pair well with both the sweet, rich flavor of cherry tomatoes, and the briny, salty clams. Tuck in to a summer night in the garden.
