People are often surprised when I tell them that I’m not from around here. I think many people assume I am from Maine, probably because I could wax poetic about the Pine Tree state for hours. I don’t mind if people think I’m from Maine, or the Boston area, because I have grown to love

Sometimes all you need is a change of scenery. I am lucky enough to have spent a great deal of time in the lakes region of the great state of Maine in my life. However, the ease and familiarity of having a family cabin in Western Maine sometimes makes it difficult

I finally got my hands onto some good stuff a few weeks ago. It was tall and red and green and full of subtle musty tartness that pleases me to no end. I searched high and low for this good stuff, patiently waiting for the good local version to hit the fruit stands. I live

Many say that Boston is not actually a big city, but really a large town.  This is never truer than when a widely-acclaimed new restaurant opens. Especially when it’s from Ken Oringer, of Clio, KO Prime, Toro and La Verdad fame and when the chef is Jamie Bissonette of Toro. Throughout

If you’re at all like me, you probably get a craving for a little something in the late afternoon, just a treat to see you through to the end of the day – and to dinner of course! I usually try to restrain myself to a cup of tea, but oh that tea tastes so

This soup was inspired by a haul from my CSA and truly rocks my world. It may not seem fancy or unusual, but the addition of a goat milk béchamel to thicken the soup imparts the most divine flavor that feels at once healthy and luxurious.

We’re a smoking couple and, by that, I don’t mean that we smoke cigarettes or revel in our looks, I promise. By smoking, I mean that we spend much of the summer, and I do mean *much* of the summer, slowly cooking all sorts of local meats with wet wood in different types of vessels
