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.

Friends in Green Places

June 21, 2010 in Portland DIY, Portland Gardening, Uncategorized

I'm lucky to have friends like my friend Karen enrolled in the horticulture program at Clackamas Community College and doing all sorts of amazing garden and landscape design projects around town. Last year Karen gave me A LOT of garden starts for my veggie garden and this year she did the same. She has a beautiful, inspiring and enormous garden and cultivates various seeds for her program.

This year it was a lifesaver for my garden. Especially since it's buy no seeds year...

Cheers to Karen Schwartz!
