“Why haven’t you gone to bed yet?” Bob scolds me from the kitchen as though I were one of the kids. I should have gone to sleep two hours ago. I’m trying to understand the price of an egg salad platter. The cafe opens on this Saturday, and I need to figure out what’s going […]
A Short Treatise on the Artisan Sausage
We’re pretty link-happy at Sap Bush Hollow Farm. We produce a wide variety of sausage, from Bratwurst to breakfast, from andouille to apple, from Sicily to Tuscany, because, well, they’re just so darned tasty off the grill. We’ve spent a lot of hours blending, linking and cooking these wonders and, naturally, we have a few […]

Top 5 Grassfed Steak Misteaks
Selling grassfed meat at a farmers’ market is great work. Folks who are inclined to buy our products are also the type of folks I most like to hang out with. Sometimes these folks have a habit of buying our meat and then inviting us to come by and help eat it. Amazing! I mind my P’s and […]

Stone Soup
Saoirse sits at the table and watches me review the figures that Larry has presented for the final stages of the cafe. We are adding up each bit of work carefully, trying to figure out what parts of the project can go on hold until we see more cash flow, what parts are absolutely essential in […]
Wild Ramp Quiche

Creamy Wild Ramp and Potato Soup
The ground in the woods is still brown with last year’s leaves, but here and there, along the creek beds, the girls and I find wide swaths of wild ramps, just begging for a spring harvest. We’ve been carrying a shovel and bag on our walks to bring home this delectable spring treasure. Here’s one […]
Albondigas
I return to the places I have loved in my life by way of my kitchen. My roommate in college, Sonia, was from Argentina, and she and I became steadfast friends, traveling different parts of the world as our budgets allowed, and adopting each other’s families as our own. When Bob and I traveled […]
