FoodTrek: Wasabi in Ciderland by Denise Sakaki

When you happen upon a giant toadstool and a sample of cider in front of you, without the invitation of "Eat Me/Drink Me," the answer is clear: Drink the Cider. A few days of heavy rain produced some impressive, albeit deadly mycological delights in the South Lake Union Discovery Center Lawn, but the sun came out to shine at this…

OMG a Recipe: Farmers Market Finds and Yes, Everything's Better With Butter by Denise Sakaki

Farmers Market Fever is in full effect, yo. Which is to say, you may spend several trips to the market, fully bedazzled and bewildered by all the amazing fresh, local produce, and somewhat stymied over what the heck to do with a bouquet of baby…

UnRecipe: New Carb City

UnRecipe: New Carb City by Denise Sakaki

Getting old(er) sucks. Getting a new scale REALLY sucks. I can deal with the gray hairs (only my hairdresser will ever know!) and given the lack of tropical weather in the Northwest, I can hide under enough scarves and clothing to never show more than a few inches of rapidly crepe-ifying skin at a time. What I can't fight is the rapid…

UnRecipe: Medite-grainian Salad and All Things Green

UnRecipe: Medite-grainian Salad and All Things Green by Denise Sakaki

I get a little bit of culture shock when warmer weather hits and I have to change my cooking habits.
