This is it, our last One Local Summer Challenge meal. It’s become such a part of our lives, spreading so that pretty much every meal we cook this summer is 75% or more local. Hard to imagine that we won’t “have” to report on it every week any more. It’s been a wonderful trip, an exploration [...]

Pacific NW Magazine: Kudos

We’re not subscribers to the Sunday Seattle Times, so I missed the fact that this week’s edition of their Sunday magazine included a feature on local farmers and eating locally. Thanks to JC Costello’s post on the Ethicurean yesterday I’ve now been alerted and had a chance to read it in it’s entirety.
Wow! After the let down [...]
One Local Summer Week #9

Back in July Jamie over at 10 Signs Like This made corn chowder for her OLS meal. It sounded delicious and I decided that once the corn came in we would give her recipe a try. Wow! It was every bit as good as it sounded. I made a couple of minor changes, but not [...]
The best burgers ever!

To steal an expression from a friend of ours (hi Kevin!) last night we made the “best burgers ever”. It was going to be our OLS meal for this week, but I didn’t take any photos as they were so freakin’ good that I couldn’t keep myself from diving right in. I’m not sure what [...]
One Local Summer Week 8

It’s been a busy week here at the hennery – no time to sit and think. So here I am on my lunch hour trying to put together a post for you all. Turns out we’ve had 2 local meals this week, but no photos as my camera is sans batteries at the moment. So, I’ll give you [...]
One Local Summer #7.3 and 7.4

Turns out we’re really on a roll with local cooking her this week. I give the credit to the fact that local produce has finally hit it’s stride. Everything is finally available from within a 160 mile radius (except for cheese) and that’s making it soooo much easier to plan and eat local meals. Here’s [...]
One Local Summer – Week 7
Posted in locavore, one local summer on August 9, 2007 | 2 Comments »
It was really nice to be back in the groove this week. I had time to go to the farmer’s market, to think about meals, to generally get it together. I normally would have avoided doing eggs for an OLS meal as they feel a bit like cheating, but it’s so nice to be back in [...]
A pause for beauty

It’s been longer than I thought since I posted. No OLS meal this week, at least not formally. We just didn’t have our act together after getting home. We ate a lot of local food, just never as a complete dinner. Our local efforts this week included chicken salad sandwiches one night (everything within 50 [...]
- I live in Washington and write about my hens, dogs, life, cooking, eating locally and whatever else strikes my fancy.
Feel free to leave me comments or notes, it's always nice to see who's stopping by.
