Breakfast Army met up at a little novelty joint called Slappy Cakes this week. This portland eatery is unusual because there are griddles built into the tables, and you can pour your own pancakes. Th...
So, Like usual I am late to blog about a holiday. I guess maybe its because I dont really do much on Mothers Day, being that I work it every year, and the kids are with their dad. I did take them to ...

Holidays in my world are always over done, and off topic, and always themed. I dont know why I have an aversion to just celebrating things the way they are meant to be, I just do. Easter is no except...
The breakfast group gathered on my side of the river this week at a little "polynesian style" restaurant called Tommy Os this Sunday. This place is like living in its own identity crisis... a...
In my life there are few things that come before food. Food is very exciting to me, but not only eating it. I also want to make it. I am a terrible "oh hai, that looks simple, lets recreate that&...
