Although I generally avoid trends, thinking them to be too cliched for my attention, I have to confess to being susceptible to trends when it comes to food - specifically vegetables. Over the years, I've bought in to fiddlehead ferns and garlic scapes and jicama with varying degrees of commitment. This year, I jumped onto … Continue reading Getting ramped up

Done with Mother’s Day
Screw Hallmark - as far as I'm concerned, May 5th was my ideal Mother's Day. No matter what happens next Sunday, I will cherish the day I had, from the scandalously late start to the fortified-with-an-afternoon-nap late ending - perfect! Let me be a little more specific...

You should know that … Continue reading Rock n Run
Thank you, Mother Nature
I know, I know, the weather has been crap. Too much rain, not enough sunshine, flooding, wet basements, lawns and gardens too saturated to permit you to get your hands anything but muddy. I get it. Despite Mother Nature taking a piss on all of us here in the Northeast, I would like to take … Continue reading Thank you, Mother Nature
