If baking is my art then muffins are […]

If you feel like making a road trip, head out to Eugene for my book signing tomorrow! From 1-5 at Hartwick’s. There will be samples!

Sometimes I feel like a nut.

Earth Day is a week from today. Are you planning on doing anything special to mark the occasion? It can be a great time to mention to your omnivorous friends the global and ecological benefits of eating veggie and more seasonally (just ’cause it’s a vegetable doesn’t mean it’s sustainable).
