pot pie fun!

last thursday jonah and i made mushroom pot pies with gouda biscuit topping. they were fun and satisfying to make! one of the fun things about making these pot pies was getting to buy oven safe bowls. i can't wait to use them to make french onion soup!
i made the filling the night before and jonah made the biscuit topping just before placing them in the oven which gave us time to enjoy manhattans with our friends while they baked!

a candlelit setting always helps create a cozy supper!
recipe is here. this recipe was good (not amzing though). i want to try a chicken pot pie next time!

oh sofia....

the song is "moi je joue" by brigitte bardot with model maryna linchuk and directed by sofia coppola.
