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.

Coverage of Food Lover's Guide to Portland 2.0

September 22, 2014 in Book Event, Book News, Food Lover's Guide to ..., Portland food, Uncategorized

Well, it's been three weeks since the second edition of my book launched and it's been a wild ride of press and events. All of both have been great which is something I'm definitely not taking for granted. Nothing but gratitude these days for the big bear hug that Portland -- particularly Powell's Books -- has given me. And all of the folks who came out for my book launch party. Nothing but love there too.

I'm including links here to all of the coverage for the book so far. Next step is adding all these links to my website buuuut this is as much as I can muster at the moment so this step will help when I get around to that. My favorite coverage so far has been all of the radio interviews. I love radio (especially this new Portland station -- XRAY.FM) and it's really fun for me to be on the airwaves. I've put the radio links at the top of the heap.

I hope that you're doing well and enjoying the seasonal shift. I really am. I'm happy things are settling down a bit now starting this week and I can do things like stay at home on a Monday -- today -- and can tomato sauce from the garden before I set to work. Life is pretty fucking great these days. Without further ado...
