Waste-Less Wednesday: Carrot Top Pesto

December 17, 2014 ~ Anni Golding ~ 3 Comments

Do you have a "Leftovers Night" at your house? Or a day when you clean out the bits and bobs that have been lingering in your refrigerator? You know what I mean: those three limpy, sad carrots that are too soft for salad, or one lonely baby bok choy whose only hope of being saved … Continue reading Waste-Less Wednesday: Carrot Top Pesto

Ridin’ the Storm Out

December 11, 2014 ~ Anni Golding ~ 1 Comment

It's here! It's here! Stormpocalypse has blown in to the Bay Area! I don't know about you, but I'm hunkered down at home today. The first message on my phone this morning was a flash flood warning from the National Weather Service. Yikes! Well, so far that hasn't happened, but the warning sealed the deal … Continue reading Ridin’ the Storm Out

Drink Local: It’s Another Thanksgiving Sunrise…

November 26, 2014 ~ Anni Golding ~ 1 Comment

I'll keep this short because, well, I know you're slammed with preparations for the Big Day. Maybe you've got pies in the oven, turkey brining in the fridge (or already in the smoker)... or you're just scratching your head trying to figure out where everything and everyone is going to fit. I feel ya! Come … Continue reading Drink Local: It’s Another Thanksgiving Sunrise…

In Which I Make Grenadine

November 7, 2014 ~ Anni Golding ~ 6 Comments

When I sat down to write today's post, I was contemplating a retrospective of the past year, given that today is 650Food's first birthday (awww, it's gone so fast -- hard to believe it's been a year since that first post). Turns out a lot went on this past year -- from discovering new family-run … Continue reading In Which I Make Grenadine

Out of the Box: What I’ve Learned

October 25, 2014 ~ Anni Golding ~ 1 Comment

When I started getting CSA deliveries of fresh, organic produce last year, I was like a kid on Christmas morning (the kind of kid who didn't sneak into mom's closet to see what Santa was bringing). Every delivery was a surprise -- with the added bonus that having fresh fruits and vegetables delivered to my … Continue reading Out of the Box: What I’ve Learned

Look Ma, No Hands: Cooking Without a Recipe

September 26, 2014 ~ Anni Golding ~ Leave a comment

Sometimes the universe sends just what you need before you realize you need it. Earlier this week, as my friend Amy was getting ready to head to the East Coast to visit her daughter, she offered me... groceries. Groceries. I wanted to say yes, but um, have you seen my fridge? It's still packed full … Continue reading Look Ma, No Hands: Cooking Without a Recipe

Grow Local: Pick a Pepper

September 8, 2014 ~ Anni Golding ~ 1 Comment

Oof -- last week was full of, well, for lack of a better way to summarize: fixin' stuff. The warranties on the car, household items, and yes, yours truly, are wearing thin. Mechanics, plumbers, and physical therapists are my new BFFs. That's why, when the weekend finally arrived, I was looking forward to doing whatever … Continue reading Grow Local: Pick a Pepper

Field Trip: Old San Juan, Puerto Rico

August 29, 2014 ~ Anni Golding ~ 5 Comments

Sometimes you just gotta bail... hit the road... get outta Dodge. Take a vay-cay-shun. I love my little corner of the 650, but it's good to travel and see the rest of the world from time to time. I'd been fantasizing about a trip to Puerto Rico -- especially Old San Juan --  since the … Continue reading Field Trip: Old San Juan, Puerto Rico

You Say Tomato, I Say Tomahto

August 27, 2014 ~ Anni Golding ~ 1 Comment

To look at our weather forecast, you wouldn't think that summer is on its way out. Yet, as much as I hate to say it (and I do -- summer is my favorite time of year), it's true. I looked out my kitchen window this morning and noticed that my garden was no longer getting … Continue reading You Say Tomato, I Say Tomahto

650 Cooks: Suzanne’s Tomato-Watermelon Salad

August 12, 2014 ~ Anni Golding ~ Leave a comment

Ever have one of those days when you come home from work, and it's -- ugh -- too hot to cook dinner, and yet, you still want a satisfying, homemade meal? Sometimes you just gotta go with your cravings and make something on the fly! This was exactly what long-time 650 resident and avid gardener, … Continue reading 650 Cooks: Suzanne’s Tomato-Watermelon Salad
