“When it’s over, I want to say: all my life I was a bride married to amazement .” – poet, Mary Oliver
Back from Los Angeles and enjoying the alternating balmy, sunny days and rainy storms of February.
Top Tastes in food include some spectacular cheeses, cheap eats in Middle Eastern food and a new chef at Urban Tavern, while Imbiber showcases a once-in-a-lifetime Highland Park tasting, cocktail competitions, wine events and more. Happenings give us a taste of Hawaii with three of its greatest chefs. Wandering Traveler begins to recap my recent LA explorations.
