Welcome! I’m thrilled you’re here. I hope my recipes, research and ramblings will help you embrace a lifestyle of truly shameless indulgence. In our complex and beautiful modern world, we have access to such a wealth of resources—so many options for what to eat and how to spend our time—that it’s easy to overindulge and lose track of what’s important. The solution is to develop an outsized appetite for everything that is good for you, to make life-affirming choices without ever sacrificing pleasure. My goal is to put a positive spin on the idea of gluttony by…
- Eating adventurously, for health and pleasure
- Staying close to nature and exploring its ability to nourish and heal
- Inhabiting a space that inspires and brings joy
- Expanding the mind and palate, not the waistline
- Covering new ground, both real and metaphorical
My emphasis is on seasonal, homemade and nutritious. I’m partial to bold, bright flavors, exotic ingredients, one-pot meals and creative cocktails. I try not to eat much white sugar and, since my husband is gluten-intolerant, I incorporate alternative grains and flours. I’m into nutritional healing and herbal medicine. I love a project, which can mean anything from smoking bacon and fermenting kimchi to planting a vegetable garden and making candles. I enjoy eating out and traveling, but I’m also incredibly content just to chill in my own home.
