When I first moved to Seattle, as a going-away present, my dear friend Christy gave me a gift certificate to a random Seattle restaurant she found online. She’d never been to the Emerald City, and she had no idea which part of Seattle I was moving (read full article)
So a confession up front: this post has nothing to do with food. But man oh man, do I have a treat for you! I am consistently surprised (and a little bummed) that it’s not my culinary explorations that readers ask me about. It’s SUE!. Tha (read full article)
Maybe it’s my brief (albeit lackluster) career as a graphic designer, but I am completely enamored by color. Given that, it’s no surprise Seattle has been a good fit for me – it’s a Technicolor city. Even in the dead of winter, everything is (read full article)
Sometimes you just need a quickie. (Dinner. I’m talking about dinner.) And it’s a good idea to have quickie ingredients in your pantry because you never know when the mood will strike. (Frantic. That frantic “OMG what am I going to make for din (read full article)
Oy. I can’t believe it’s been almost a month since my last post! Sorry kids, and thanks for your diligence in checking in on me. It’s been a whirlwind since the New Year – moving to a different neighborhood, setting up a new house (and kitche (read full article)
I have a little story for you today: Once upon a time, on a gorgeous New Jersey summer evening, there was a little redhead, about two years old, playing outside while her Dad and her SUE! tinkered around in the flower beds and vegetable garden. All o (read full article)
A few years ago one of my childhood-memory-bubbles was burst. We grabbed autumn by the horns and went to one of those apple orchard/fall festival farm/corn maze/petting zoo/pumpkin patch bonanzas that are all the rage these days. Oh it was fun; we dr (read full article)
When I was in college, I was on the rowing team. And the coach my junior year was a particularly big guy named Karl. He had a shaved head, a goatee, and a bio-hazard symbol tattooed on his bicep. Let’s just say Karl was “persuasive.” I could wr (read full article)
You will probably never believe this, but South Jersey wasn’t exactly a mecca of international cuisine in the 80’s. I know, hard to believe, but my idea of chinese was the sweet and sour dipping sauce for your McNuggets. yeesh. But sometime when (read full article)
Hello! I’m sorry it’s been so long… I’ve been knee-deep in a job search and contract work, and unfortunately Seattle Palate has taken the hit. But I have been blah-blah-blogging up a storm and have a whole list of posts just for you. (If (read full article)
Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a fantastic holiday season (and your pants still fit). Despite the efforts of Mother Nature and her nasty Nor’Easter storm that dumped a record 26″ of snow on South Jersey, I did finally make it back to (read full article)
SM is a good Irish boy and likes his potatoes. Any way you slice or dice them, he will clean his plate. I think I could make just about any protein and stick it next to a big pile of potatoes and he would be one happy kid. As much of a red flag as I& (read full article)
Even though the ingredients make it a summer dish, I’ve been craving the rich, stewy, deliciousness of some ratatouille lately, and decided to make it the other night. (Recipe to come, and believe me, you won’t want to miss it!) Eggplant isn’t (read full article)

I *love* Christmas stockings and the little goodies that are inside. We always opened them up first thing in the morning, and among the toothpaste and fruit (we always had an orange stuck in the very bottom of the toe), was always one or two prize po (read full article)
Are you panicking? I am. Sure, the tree is trimmed, decorations out, cards in the mail. BUT. I have barely put a dent in my shopping list!! I do this every single year, even though I swear that this year will be different. Oh well. I get such a kick (read full article)
I missed the bus last night. Do those 5 words make you sweat like they do for me? I scampered up to the bus stop just as the one I had intended to catch pulled away. Lucky for me, there was another one a few minutes later. But still, as I watched the (read full article)
