Canning 101 class at Strosniders Bethesda- this Saturday!

Spring and summer produce really are on the horizon. Canning is a great way to save seasonal stars for later. This Saturday, May 13, at Strosniders in Bethesda, I'll be teaching Canning 101. We'll make strawberry rhubarb jam from start to finish. All are welcome, the class is free. Register here.

In the news...

Restaurant review a'coming tomorrow, but yesterday was a good day and today a damn busy one. In the news, in short order:

I taught a terrific Canning 101 class at Strosniders. We made my Apple, Pear and Lemon Thyme Jam; those who stayed to chat after class ended got to take home all the leftovers. Fun!
Thanks to everyone who came and to Strosniders for having me back. 

I had another essay, The Sweetest Traditions Are Often the Simplest, published on The Huffington Post. Exciting!

And, a sandwich I recently created - was nominated for a community pick on Food52. Want to eat some seasonal deliciousness for lunch this week? Make this: Apple, Bacon, Caramelized Red Onion Sandwiches with Arugula-Thyme Spread. I thought it was so good that as soon as I finished the first, I made a second one and ate that too.
