Linguine tossed with olive oil, ramps and scallops.
Sometimes I feel like I blather on far too much about myself in the midst of telling you about my food adventures. Still, some of you have expressed an interest in learning even more about me and what makes me tick.
I’m not one for navel-gazing, and can’t [...]

After gorging myself on various pork products for the past few weeks, I really felt like I needed a break from all the meat.

Having brought home quite a haul from our little foraging expedition, my head was abuzz with all the possibilities. While foraging I was worried I might not be able to use everything we’d picked. By the time I was done with this meal, I realized I should have gotten more.
