Promises, Promises: 3.15.21
The first rabe of the year; a soft pretzel that takes one back out to the ballgame; eggs that do Easter proud; a light, bright, decidedly non-wintery stew; a food meant to eat by hand at the first picnic of the season: These harbingers of spring flavors topped my personal eating chart during the fortnight just past.

Pure, strong and compelling flavors that manage to be bright, even unexpectedly light, offer a glimpse ahead to a month that can start with rage and close with the hint of halcyon days.
Dog days of winter: 2.15.21
Are you despairing of a tomato-less time of year? Please don’t. There’s so much so good out there right now. Eat! Enjoy!
