I haven’t been to the grocery store in weeks. I mean it. Not because I haven’t been eating (pfffff) and not because I haven’t been eating well…but because I’ve been living off our local land. Literally. And it has changed everything. Saturdays this summer have looked a bit like this: wake up, enjoy coffee + breakfast, get dressed and get to the market when it opens. Wander the stalls, fill my shoulder bag to the brim – I mean, really,…
Memories and experiences – especially from unexpected places – are my favorite ingredients in any recipe. I don’t know exactly what to call the state of being that was sitting on the porch, eating a strawberry popsicle as a kid. But it’s this experience…

This summer, I'll be in all the places where sport and cuisine collide (at some incredible tables and on beautiful rides!) Join me! …
As it turns out, eating your way through a city is really hard. I know! It sounds crazy. But really it’s true. Because unless you’re out to gorge yourself (you’re not, even if you joke that you are) you want to feel hungry and…
I’m literally exhausted from the most amazing, overwhelming, inspiring and delicious week in Austin. I traveled down to SXSW to spent time cooking, riding and exploring with the good people of SRAM on their Open The Road tour, and let me tell you, even…
