Ramp country festival this weekend
According to their website, Richwood, West Virginia is the heart of ramp country. To celebrate, they're having the Richwood Ramp Fest this Saturday, April 22. Where exactly? "Located in the south central portion of West Virginia in Nicholas County, deep in the hills, accessible by two-lane paved road and Richwood is situated just at the edge of the Monongahela National Forest." Drat! I had ramps last night for the first time, and they were yummy. This festival sounds fun but I can't make it this year, perhaps next year.

Strawberry Fields Forever
Food traditions bind my family; I'm reminded of that every year when I drive to north-central Massachusetts to pick strawberries with my grandparents.
Comparing Frozen Fish to Fresh
My mother swears by frozen fish. I was unconvinced, and decided to put her statements to the test: could flash-frozen fish taste as good as fresh local fish from the Greenmarket or even fresh fish from a local supermarket?
