What do you think the “don’t miss” food experiences are in Bucks County and nearby? A delicious burger, a delightful cocktail, a perfect view? Or how about the “feel” of the place, and the way the bartender or wait staff know you, and what you like. What are your favorite experiences and places to go [...]

It’s been over a year since I published Local food blogs – part one, sharing some of the interesting writing being done locally about food. It is a pleasure to read these blogs and websites. They give a view into the workings of our local foodshed in a way that is both informative [...]
Yep. It’s this Sunday. You better get your act together. Father’s Day is Sunday, June 19, 2011.
Do people still buy ties for Dads? Or barbecue equipment? Or is that all advertising gobbly gook? More like polo shirts and ugly shorts, no? What truly is reality?
Before I get too metaphysical, let’s get [...]
The forecast this weekend is mixed – for the weather, but not for fun things to do and eat!
Strawberries still abound and overcast skies are the best conditions for picking it yourself, says personal chef, Rich Baringer, in his article on where to find strawberries in Bucks and how to pick them. [...]
Ok. I’ll say it. This is killing me. Sitting inside at the computer on this absolutely magnificent day. This is going to be short, folks. The backyard is calling to me. Also, there is lots going on this weekend. Here are the highlights…
Welcome Plumsteadville Grange Market, opening for the season tomorrow, Saturday, June [...]
I don’t know about your mother, but I know what my mother likes. Chocolate, dark chocolate. Marzipan. Almonds. All encased in chocolate.
So if you are scratching your head wondering what to get your mother, wife or significant other for Mother’s Day, scratch no longer. Here’s a listing of some local [...]
As it turns out, Didi Mercier and I have known each other for a long time. Something clicked when I saw her name. That’s because Didi Mercier has been making delicious, sweet things for a long time. We actually worked at an auto parts store company over 15 years ago [...]
It all started with drinks, chocolate drinks to be specific. Laurie Douglass got into chocolate through hot cocoa. Then it was chocolate making classes, and more classes, and, well, you know how it goes. Nine years later and a couple of states later, she’s making four kinds of hot cocoa, buttercrunch toffee, caramels, truffles and [...]

Spring holidays. Lenten Fish Fry suppers start at several locations today – the Riegelsville Fire Co. and the Columbia Fire Co. in [...]
Just had a great breakfast at Vera’s Country Cafe in Ottsville. I had the “Fun Guy” Omelet (lots of fungi, aka, mushrooms) in it, Mark had the Cheese Steak Omelet – beef, peppers, onions and provolone, with marinara sauce on top – which was fantastic. Also loved the corned beef hash with carmelized [...]
Wine, chocolate and thou. That seems to be the theme this Valentine’s Day Weekend. I always shy away from Valentine’s Day, to be truthful. I was single for many, many years, and it wasn’t such a happy day for me. But, there’s no reason not to enjoy eating and drinking in Bucks County – whether [...]
