Getting Ready for Our “Passport to Dry Creek Valley” Spring Break
My wife and I are right in the middle of preparing for a huge catering event this weekend in Sonoma. It’s called “Passport to Dry Creek Valley,” which is an annual event showing off the wines, and vineyards, of the beautiful Dry Creek Valley (photo from visitwineroad.com). We will be doing the food for our dear friend Bill Frick, at the amazing Frick Winery for the 12th straight year. Despite all the planning and prep work, its a lot of fun and we always look forward to it.There are over 50 wineries involved in this event, and thousands of wine enthusiasts will be
eating and sipping their way through the valley. By the way, if you have a chance, check out the Frick Winery website. Bill produces some of the most delicious wine in California.Due to the limited time to film clips and write articles, there will probably not be any new videos until after the weekend. I may do a couple posts before I leave, especially if any new About video recipes air, but no promises! This will be the perfect time to review your favorite recipes and make sure you havent missed any. Dont forget to use the google search box in the side bar to find the ingredients you are interested in. Enjoy!

Our New Apartment Design By Color
![]() |
| Create a budget-friendly built-in look with IKEA bookcases. |
My mind is a wee bit toasted this happy June Monday. No Darling, I haven't been indulging in any fragrant mind-altering substances. I've been unpacking. I've been organizing (like a sixties housewife popping mother's little helpers). I've been making
Because above all else, I am seeking calm. I am cultivating peace. I am inviting inspiration. Preparing for my muse. Opening to a new chapter in this winding road journey of ours, hurtling as we are, ever faster to our mortality (yes, another June birthday looms).
We have landed in Studio City on a quiet leafy street, where pajama clad neighbors walk their dogs early, sipping soy lattes and yawning to birdsong.
These are my people.
I haven't been cooking much (though I did bake some chocolate mint cupcakes for a certain son's birthday this weekend), which means I don't have a new recipe to share- yet. So I thought I'd share a few iPhone shots of our new living space. A quick peep into our new apartment. And just so you know?
I shelve my books by color.

Gluten Free Chili Our Favorite Recipe
![]() |
Our favorite gluten-free chili- hearty winter comfort. |
FADE IN:
INT. 5TH FLOOR APARTMENT - DAY
A chilly winter light slices into a SANTA MONICA apartment and illuminates every cobweb. (Obviously, a certain individual has been neglecting house work again). Said individual sighs audibly. Glances sideways into the mirror hanging above the kitchen sink cluttered with coffee spoons, grilled cornbread crumbs and half-filled tea mugs. She could never pass for Martha Stewart. Not in a million years.
DISHEVELED GLUTEN-FREE GODDESS
Good gravy. Look at all the dust balls.
STEVE (HUSBAND)
So what. What's a dust bunny or two?
(glancing up from his laptop)
I’ll vacuum later. Or next Tuesday.
DISHEVELED GLUTEN-FREE GODDESS
My hero.

This calls for chili.
