What’s Cookin’

Howdy, gang. You ready for me to make you hongry? I’m already thinking ahead to my dinner tonight at 1760, with ribollita, and pappardelle with duck ragù on their current Winter in Tuscany prix-fixe menu. I also enjoyed such a delicious “wintertime in California” menu on Sunday evening at…

Howdy gang. Thanks to all of you who wrote in with your comments and kudos and gripes and additions to my annual the bore list of ten things I don’t want to see in the new year, you always entertain me! Now it’s time for some catch-up with…

Howdy, gang! We made it. Barely. Tomorrow we begin a new decade, which feels like an extra-fresh start. I say make a resolution you want to keep, one that makes you happy. One year, my resolution was to cook for friends once a month. It was a good one—it…

High, gang! How is it December 17th? I swear, this holiday is just flying by (but then again, I’ve been working nonstop on the launch of the new mymilly box—the nation’s first direct-to-consumer subscription and discovery box for microdosers—over at mymilligram, so I know what’s…

Howdy! How you doing out there? A little warm? Kinda sweaty? My apartment is such a hotbox today (and no, not the weed kind—I’m on deadline over here!). But here’s one way to cool off: tonight (Tuesday September 24th) is the tablehopper spirited supper at Besharam with…

Howdy, friends! Here we are, almost into mid-September, how did that happen? I’m clutching these last moments of summer tightly. Fig toast and zucchini-and-dill pasta help. Actually, I’m about to get completely fried as I head to Palm Springs for Females to the Front, a women in cannabiz…

If you’re reading this right now, then it means you haven’t gone to Burning Man. Me neither (meow). I’m currently up in Lake Tahoe, enjoying my second week of working part-time—basically, I make sure I have a few hours every afternoon to ride my bike to…
