AGNTAGNM Workday Lunch #3: Zucchini fritters

This recipe is adapted from Smitten Kitchen, where she takes prettier pictures in her light-filled and not a total disaster-area kitchen and also gives more of a damn. Things not to judge me about on this post: the dirtiness of my stove; the dirtiness and lack of put-away dishes on my counter; the fact that we had no paper towels on this day so I drained my fritters on a lunch bag. Things to tell me are so great about me and my cooking: I’m using a cast-iron to deep-fry things in; I made this shit from scratch; I used a paper bag to drain my fritters.

Zucchini fritters! They are so goddamn tasty.

I will go ahead and say zucchini fritters are the yummiest things you can do with zucchini, and I don’t hate on zucchini or anything. They are just that good. They’re also really hard to screw up. You need just a few things:

OK, I love this not just because the recipe sounds fantastic. I love it because I have the same effed up stove, the same formica countertop (except mine is yellow), and the same big-ass cast iron pan. Cast iron rocks! And, bonus, we don’t even own a microwave, so I can’t possibly screw up the reheating bit. Totally trying this recipe — thanks!

Natasha & Aaron | DC courthouse wedding

Natasha and Aaron made it official at the DC courthouse with their nearest and dearest – including a bunch flown halfway across the world with a little guy on his (first?) super-long plane ride. It was a freak cold day when it should have been beautiful, but we soldiered through and skipped our way down to the National Gallery of Art to keep everybody from freezing. But first, they had some marrying to do.

Natasha and Aaron bought their families different colored Converse to wear while walking around between portrait locations. Adorable!

I’ve been having fun with these giant portraits at the National Gallery. They’re so weird to shoot with.

We braved the cold to trek out to the Navy Memorial on GW (the one with the flying birds) for some more family pictures and to get a bit of the Lincoln in some photos. ‘Course, I was feeling the tunnel under the GW.

Cool! Great expressions.

Mallory & Aaron | St. Johns College intimate wedding | Annapolis, MD

Mallory and Aaron got married on the beautiful campus of St. Johns College in Annapolis, with the smallest possible wedding (that can include a photographer). Yet another couple who tells me they are nervous and awkward with pictures but who are ridiculously cuddly and happy and look awesome in photos. Yeah, these two:

Mallory goes to St. Johns, so she already had the place well scoped-out.

Apparently it’s bunny season, because these guys were everywhere.

Also, how rad is Mallory’s 20s getup? Super-cool feather hairpiece and a rockin’ green wedding dress.

There’s a really beautiful little dock on a small lake at the back of St. Johns. We politely asked a couple and their dog to let us borrow the pier for a minute. He came back with a cigar for the groom. These Annapolis people are so nice! And their lakes are so pretty.

These are super awesome. Her outfit is too cute, I love that headpiece!

These photos just makes my heart happy. They look so darn adorable and in love.

Also, I love that last shot. I’d get one of those masks, bring it to the beach with me, and follow seagulls around just for the fun of it.

Awesome pictures! Congrats you two!
