The hungry foodie: Healthy eating, locally
http://thehungryfoodie.blogspot.com/2010/05/healthy-eating-locally.html
Monday, May 31, 2010. Healthy eating, locally. For most folks, food is easy. We go to the store, pick out some goodies and go home. Not a lot of thought goes into it beyond whether we can afford what we want. After all, vegetables are vegetables, right? And all those veggies are good for our bodies, right? But some have begun to ask questions. Where did that green pepper come from? How about those apples? How were these cucumbers grown? How was the animal that became this steak treated during its life?

Monday, June 30, 2008. Farm stands and fresh veggies. I can tell it's almost time for local produce at the market: my garden has really taken off in the past week. And if my garden is growing, you can bet the farmers are way ahead of me. So while I've been watching my broccoli grow like a weed and the tomatoes threaten to rise up and shake off the fetters of their cages, I've also been keeping an eye out for roadside stands. Thus far I've run into one: the award-winning Kubecka Farms. Blogroll, please .

Monday, June 23, 2008. How you know you're just too busy. My little soap business has exploded in the last month or so, as I think I mentioned in my last post a couple of days ago. Between it and my full-time job at the paper, I haven't had time for much other than sleep and foraging at local eateries (nothing notable, trust me). And two bottles of ketchup. There isn't enough ketchup in my diet. While I packed yet another 3784563487563047 orders. So I broke down and got some groceries, some of it being p...

The hungry foodie: Cheese, Louise!
http://thehungryfoodie.blogspot.com/2010/06/cheese-louise.html
Sunday, June 6, 2010. I have to admit, until recently I was pretty much in the dark about just how much food is produced within an hour's drive west of my home. Sure, I knew there was wine and lots of it, thanks to the 30 wineries (and distilleries and cideries! That line the Finger Lakes; and I knew about the organic meats and the fabulous greens; but when it came to other stuff you can chew, I had merely an inkling. That's when I learned about the newly formed Finger Lakes Cheese Trail. But isnt there ...

Friday, April 11, 2008. Eat Local potluck tomorrow! I'm pretty excited about the Eat Local potluck supper tomorrow. I've been little more than a shut-in this winter, and like the lovely purple crocuses that have popped up in my front yard, it's time to come out of my winter doldrums and get back into the swing of things. What better way to do that than to join some like-minded folks for good food and good conversation? In the meantime, though, I need to decide what to bring to the potluck!

Sunday, June 13, 2010. Farm to Table: Finger Lakes - wellness and health, done local. It makes sense that last weekend’s Farm to Table Finger Lakes event was produced by Pathways to SmartCare: “Make Smart Choices.” Eating fresh, local foods, keeping food dollars local … promoting wellness through healthy choices … it all came together last weekend through regionally produced foods and service providers. Here’s how it unfolded. Finger Lakes Dexter Creamery. The raw food treats whipped up by Roxanne Gupta,...

Monday, May 26, 2008. What's for dinner this week? There's something about a pot of kale simmered in hot broth that makes me expect to find cannellini and tender bits of sausage waiting for me at the bottom. However, last night's Portuguese Green Soup had neither beans nor sausage. It did, however, feature mashed red potatoes that thickened the liqueur of the soup nicely (silky-smooth! Gina's Portuguese Green Soup. Adapted from Faye Levy's International Vegetable Cookbook. Serves 3-4 as an appetizer.

The hungry foodie: Garden update
http://thehungryfoodie.blogspot.com/2008/06/garden-update.html
Thursday, June 19, 2008. A sudden, sharp uptick in activity with my soap business has temporarily sidetracked me from blogging in recent weeks . but life still goes on! When I haven't been busily packing orders and updating spreadsheets (or warming a chair at my day job), I've been tending the garden. As usual, we have far too many tomato plants, but can it really be too many when you have so many different varieties? We have over a dozen individual plants at one end of the long bed beside the house.
