We had our first meeting last night at ART LA in Bergamot Station. Although the undesirable weather caused a decrease in the number of attendees we had, it was, in my opinion, a success. In fact, the small number made it more conducive to get to know one another a little better and make a […]
Read More ›Did I hear that correctly? Unfortunately, yes. Today on NPR it was that very phrase that made me stop, mid-kale-preparation (and you know, that takes something pretty big) to make sure my ears weren’t playing tricks on me. Nope. Curious to know what that means? I sure was. Here’s what I found: “According to Chicago […]

While I’d disagree with just how often, I’d be fibbing if I were to pretend I never hurt myself in the kitchen. Due not to lack of skill, but to my seemingly constant need to multi-task, I can’t count the number […]
