I gaze out the side window as Mom drives me home from the train station. The girls are in the back. Bob rides with Dad. Technically, I’m still on vacation. I shouldn’t have to think about what she’s saying. I shouldn’t even have to listen to her. “I think we need to open the cafe […]
Ghosts or souls?
Apparently there’s not just a ghost in the basement. There seems to be more than one. “It’s like a room full of noisy children down there!” My friend Joellyn, a psychic, gave us the macabre news shortly after the cafe opened when she was coming by to purchase meats. “They’re harmless,” she assured me as […]

Once again, all the food is all coming from our town…the turkeys are coming from Sap Bush Hollow. Tickets […]
Stupid Idea
I learned a lot this summer. I learned to put customer numbers on guest checks to keep track of orders. I learned to use guest checks. I learned that a farm can grow the commons as well as it can grow meat and vegetables. I learned that it helps to clean up and set tables […]

The Open Flag
OPEN flags are like babies. They change you for life. Just as pregnancy hormones alone started unraveling the do-good school girl in me, causing me to suddenly challenge doctors, stare down speeding cars when I approached a cross walk or stand up to pushy people; so too did the mere knowledge that the OPEN flag […]
Naked Short Ribs
I was all about efficiency this week. I lit my grill to sear a steak for lunch, then used the flames to sear the cuts I would braise later in the week. Feeling flush with short ribs, and remembering how delicious short ribs were off the grill while studying asado techniques down in Argentina, I decided to combine two traditions […]
Customer Service
There is no Pepsi in our cooler. We offer regionally-made kombucha. There are no Snickers bars on our counter. We bake fresh pie every morning from local fruit. We don’t fry eggs to order. We can’t grow enough eggs to supply our local customers’ demand for fresh eggs as it is. We don’t sell sandwiches. The […]
Link-Ta-Touille
My life these days centers around ratatouille. It’s easy, it tastes great hot or cold, leftovers are fabulous in a bone broth soup, and it’s easy to pull the flavors in any number of directions: let the veggies shine on their own with a little olive oil, salt and pepper, or pull it in a […]
