Hey PDXers- This wine & cheese class at Helvetia Winery on Nov 15th is being taught by my friend Emily who is a truly incredible cheese educator. She’s focusing on a traditional cheese that is aged in spruce bark this day. 🤯 I “wood” not miss this class! www.tickettailor.com/events/helve...

I saw the Yeah Yeah Yeahs open for the White Stripes in my college gymnasium at UC San Diego in 2003? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 1) Karen O OMG 2) Jack White played the guitar on his back and changed my perception of music. I’m so happy for their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!

Hearing water quality monitoring in fish in Montana…they have found DEET & Metformin in fish tissue samples. 🤦♀️ Don’t pee near waterways! And don’t spray deet before swimming

These are not plums, they are apples! These are red-fleshed Robert’s Crab apples. They are crispy, tart & aromatic.

I’ve been running. A lot more than I have in years. I’m getting faster slowly but surely and it’s so much fun.

I spent last week in Beaver head-Deer Lodge National Forest, on a 5-day backpacking trip with Montana Llama Guides. Granite, mountain streams, alpine lakes, wildflowers—It was an incredible experience & one I’d do again in a heartbeat. I can’t recommend Montana or Montana Llama Guides enough! 🦙🌄🌟

Feeling nostalgic for beer twitter 2021 (my highly curated version) and all the awesome foodies I used to follow there too. I haven’t had success finding folks on here. So here’s tonight’s wild salmon tacos and sparkling Oregon Pinot noir. Foodies 👀
