In the early 1970s, my mom published a cookbook. She compiled her favorite original recipes and gathered some from loved ones and other sources. She included photos of friends and family (including the one of me to the right) and quirky, humorous, food-related illustrations and images. She handed the books out to a lucky few.
In my youth, I grew up running around my Santa Barbara neighborhood on the weekends and in the evenings, picking fresh kumquats, pomegranates, blackberries, and sourgrass from yards and along roads. Back then, I didn’t eat a lot; I was too busy. Those foraged treats fueled my adventures in the wild.

When I was young, I loved to make cookies as holiday gifts. My mom’s recipe for winter rainbow cookies was one of my favorites.
I love to eat fish. Salmon is usually on my plate at least once a week, as sautéed filets or savory chunks stuffed inside tortillas and topped with zesty slaw. I enjoy local trout and bass as well. I caught my first fish, a mackinaw, in 2018.
