Bucks County Taste

Shopping and wine. Well, not necessarily together. It just seems looking around, many people are freaking that Christmas is only a week away. Hence, shopping. And looking at our food calendar, while the number of activities has dropped, many of them involve drinking wine. Seems a perfect antidote to the holiday craziness, no? [...]
Ah, Irene. You are striking fear in the hearts of many. Let’s pray you’re not as nasty as they are making you out to be.
It would be an understatement to say this weekend is overshadowed by Hurricane Irene. First priority is battening down the hatches, putting anything away that might be a projectile in [...]
No, I’m not referring to the famous book by Ray Bradbury. I’m talking about local dandelions, carefully harvested and turned into a sweet dessert wine. I’ve heard about it over the years but had no idea how it would taste. Now Wycombe Vineyards has this year’s harvest of Dandelion Wine available – while [...]
If some of these “scattered thunderstorms” can hold off, it looks like a pretty decent weekend. Which is great news if you are heading over to the 2011 Middletown Grange Fair. We will be going tonight – for the BBQ Chicken Dinner, of course, and to see the bunnies and maybe buy a [...]
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 [...]
Don’t hate us. We spent last evening eating five wonderful barbecue courses, each paired with a fine, small batch or single barrel Bourbon (NOT Jack Daniels – the good stuff). The highlight of the evening? Besides the brisket, which I loved, Mark won a blind test where he had to identify by smell each of [...]
At the risk of being corny (get it?), I keep wanting to break into song. Rodgers & Hammerstein, of course. “Oh what a beautiful mo-o-ornin’, oh what a beautiful d-a-ay…” or “…the corn is as high as an elephant’s eye!” (Both lines actually written here in Bucks, at Hammerstein’s place, Highland Farm, on [...]
It’s officially summer. All the signs have been there – heat, humidity, thunderstorms, blueberries, fireflies, ice cream and even corn, but there was one more today. Cicadas. Why is that sound so comforting? Only one more thing I’ve yet to hear. Crickets. And of course we don’t have lovely, red tomatoes yet. Then it will [...]
Feeling a little damp today. Rain, humidity. Guess it’s officially summer in Southeastern Pennsylvania. Either that or the Amazon rain forest has moved way north. Ho hum. But still lots of fun things to eat and do this week. Check out the abbreviated calendar below and click on Food Events in Bucks County [...]
Thank goodness we’re back to seasonal weather and the weekend looks pretty decent (don’t want to jinx it). As I prepare the weekly calendar update, I’m always thinking, “What are we doing this weekend? Can we go to this? Or that?” It’s always a bit up in the air.
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 [...]
For those of us who will still be stuck here roaming the earth after the rapture, we might as well enjoy ourselves, no? My husband tells me – and he’s the one who watches the news 24/7 for his living – that the ones left behind will have five whole months before the [...]
Whoowee! Another great weekend in Bucks County. Temps in the 60′s and 70′s; only a chance of showers on Saturday, maybe “scattered thunderstorms” on Sunday. I’ll take it.
What neat things are on tap this weekend? Ever been to a Beltane Festival? Now’s your chance. Bobolink Dairy Farm & Bakehouse will be holding [...]
