Food Lover's Guide to Portland Blog...

began as a collection of some of the research, recipes, images and culinary adventures that went into the making of Food Lover’s Guide to Portland. The first edition came out in 2010 and I started the blog in February 2009 as a companion piece to it and to help organize my thoughts while researching and writing it. The second edition came out in September 2014 from Hawthorne Books. The blog is now home to all different food, drink and beyond things I want to show and tell.

I’m also co-author of Fermenter: DIY Fermentation for Vegan Fare, author of Dumplings Equal Love, co-author of Toro Bravo: Stories. Recipes. No Bull from McSweeney’s, as well as Hello! My Name is Tasty: Global Diner Favorites from Portland’s Tasty Restaurants from Sasquatch Books and Grow Your Own: Understanding, Cultivating, and Enjoying Cannabis from Tin House Books.

I didn’t think I’d like blogging when I first started this, but it turns out I really do, mostly because I get to shout out people and things that I love.

Book Launch Party Thursday, July 1st, 6-9pm

My boyfriend Tyler Adams and his business partner Ms. Mikki opened Fortune Tattoo at 1716 E Burnside, in Portland, on April 1st of this year. No fooling! The shop has been doing great and they don't even have a sign up yet. Stop by and say hello if you're in the neighborhood. You can grab some wings at Fire on the Mountain or an gyro at Foti's -- both are Fortune Tattoo neighbors -- while you're at it.

((ATTENTION: My ex-boyfriend, Tyler Adams, no longer co-owns Fortune Tattoo. Visit his North Portland shop -- Grizzly Tattoo -- which opened June, 2011! For more info. visit www.grizzlytattoo.com, 503.265.8146. Grrrrrrrizzly!))

I'm happy to announce that my book launch party for Food Lover's Guide to Portland will be at Fortune Tattoo on Thursday, July 1st from 6-9pm. Come one, come all for food, drinks, music and more.

The kiwi tattoo I got from my man at Fortune Tattoo. His first tattoo in the new shop.

It's going to be a huge party with food and drink from a whole bunch of generous local folks featured in the book including Captured By Porches Brewing Company, Newman's Fish Company, Cheese Bar, Pix Patisserie, Cork, Laurelhurst Market, Xocolatl de David, Hot Lips Soda, and more.

If you, or the business that you work for, are in the book and want to make a food and drink donation to the party please be in touch. There will also be a very exciting prize that we're going to give away during the party to a lucky book buyer. More details soon...
