Food.

My incredibly cute travel size #habanerocarrotcurry drone #chefsweekpdx. where would I be had I not met @spicymarshall and @dirkzaster? Thank you for being incredible chile professionals. I love you to the moon and back.

This @chefsweekpdx is great. Company? Heart melting. I fucking love this company. @spicymarshall @dirkzaster @originalfare @ironwayfilms

Rivers Edge Peony later gram from yesterday. The cheeses they make are my jam.

I love it when the scores on the loaves imperfectly sway, pull away and stretch. While I am obsessed with perfection (which some times is to my detriment) the process of baking by hand is an endless sea of metaphors, about the beauty of imperfection, the amazing potential of mediation, the love, hard work and care that goes into producing something that is now an extension of you, a snapshot of who you are, how you are feeling, your hopes, dreams and anxieties all encompassed in a gluten cloak. I love this process. #allmyfriendsarebread #glutenspree #deardiary #sourdough

Thinking

Tandoori chicken with mango and fermented lemons

Everybody has their own special place in hell scenario but service wrap fails hell has gotta be the specialist.

Supta baddha konasana. A quick car boot yoga de-compress. Learning to breathe thanks to the amazing support of @laurenchandlercooks @spicymarshall and @dirkzaster. You guys are gems. I'm feeling all kinds of love. #PresentCulture #chefsweekpdx

You know who I love? This guy. So comforter to know we'll be plating side by side at West Coast Modern for @chefsweekpdx. So much love!

25 days later a half gallon of lemon pickle is ready. Came out almost as good as my moms. Really stoked to bring it out for Chefsweek. Shout out to @pleezwatchthatchild for taking care of this baby while I was gone.

Nothing like spending 40 hours making a dinner only to inhale an envelope of almond butter for breakfast like it was the first sign of edible food you've seen in months.

You'll be carnitas soon.

Chiletepin, I don't like our distance the past few years.
