Northwest Farmers Make Seattle Times Sunday Front Page!

As I walked the Ballard Market yesterday, I received a call from my mom asking if I had seen the front page of the Seattle Times. Making a note of it to check it out, I was thrilled to find that the same farmers that I see every Sunday made cameos in the story! Check out the article here. I am always excited when slow food makes headlines and draws attention to a crucial need for local food.

Recipe Writing at a Coffee Shop in Ballard

Listening to Radiohead playing in the background of a bustling coffee shop while I'm writing the recipe to one of my favorite things in the entire world- Roast Chicken. I'm sure at some point in the process of writing recipes I'll get absolutely famished, wishing I had a piece of roast chicken or a cold roast chicken sandwich, I'd even go for a Seattle cream cheese dog! I finished the leftovers of the "Christmas Cioppino" recipe test from last night and thinking it could use more fennel. And sooo, the recipes continue.
