Ceramic artist and industrial designer Eva Zeisel died on Friday in New City, New York. She was 105. Among her many accomplishments, the Hungarian-born Zeisel, who emigrated to the United States in 1938, is perhaps best known for her organic, warm approach to modernism, as exemplified by the gentle curves of her beloved 1940s and '50s dinnerware designs.

Nothing feels more festive - or fortunate - than a table stacked with wholesome (and sure, maybe a bit indulgent) foods. Every year I go a little more overboard, researching recipes and techniques, sourcing ingredients I'll need. But it's a time of year when making time for cooking - scratch cooking, craft cooking - feels effortless. And I'm certainly not alone here.
