Life on a New England oyster farm. February 5, 2009 in Day-to-Day. After months of planning, scheming (in some cases flat-out lying – apologies), I finally announced today that I’m leaving my job as Boston editor of DailyCandy.com to spend a year working at Island Creek Oysters. My last day at DC is Feb 20th; I start at the farm on March 9. I’ve been planning this in my head for months and not once have I considered needing justification but this statement alone gave it to me. I’m acting ...Congraulation...

Per our hosts' request, we park the car at the bottom of the hill and trek up a windy, somewhat treacherous route to the castle by foot. Don't my companions have lovely backsides? View from the (almost). I was quite relieved to reach a real path with a real railing. Entrance to the castle. My favorite: Alsace's oldest wine cask, from 1670. Where's my glass? Official seals from real, real important people. View from the top.

How do you say fromage in french? Saturday, March 27, 2010. Fist Pumping in Strasbourg. Hard to believe that it has been 5 weeks since we've been off the farm. But our new friends Line (who used to work on the farm) and her boyfriend, Sebastian, invited us to stay a night at their flat in Strasbourg. They live right across the river from the Cathedral, and directly above the delicious restaurant we dined that evening, " Gavroche. It turned out to be, thus far, our favorite meal in France! Line and Seb al...

Add a nonstop flow of wine (Michel owns his own vineyard, as many home-owners do in this area), and you've got yourself a helluva lunch! Some photos Owen took after lunch while we walked around the town. This horse was getting a manicure. I know we have seriou...

How do you say fromage in french? Monday, November 30, 2009. Thanksgiving has come and gone, and unfortunately it went by much too quickly as I didn't even have time to take as many pictures as I'd hoped! So, to tide you over until the next adventure, I've put together a 'potpourri' of recent happenings, including a VIDEO of some fine Alsatian movin' and groovin' (i.e. polka). La Cuisine: The Kitchen. Look - there's O's laptop, which just so happens to be where I am sitting at this very moment. Many than...

How do you say fromage in french? Tuesday, January 4, 2011. Owen demonstrates grinding all the apples into mooshy appley chunks. This is what they looked like after grinding and fermenting - mmmm, appetizing. We filled about 4 barrels full of the chunks, Gabriel added roughly 5 pounds of sugar per barrel, and then they sat in the sealed barrels for 5 months. This is the distiller. The yellow hose ran all the way back to the barn for running water. Now, the real work happens! Gabriel is showing us this co...

And here, some pictures from our couple of days in Strasbourg, featuring traditional Alsatian architecture, Petite France, the most delicious pastry filled with muenster on a bed of sauerkraut, and our attempt at playing Snooker (which is like pool, only the table is GINORMOUS and you feel like you're hitting a golf ball across a football field with a tiny stick). Thank you for such lovely pictures, Jess! The am...

Life in, and out, of the kitchen. Laquo; James Beard Dinner. Jumping on a full bandwagon. March 2, 2010 by soussurvivor. As a cook, knives are not only a necessary tool, but an extension of myself. Literally and metaphorically speaking. The knives I choose to spend my hard-earned money on are extremely special to me, and any cook who has learned how to get his/her knives razor sharp knows how great it feels to slice a tomato or mince a shallot, and then say, FUCK YEA. So my bud Greg. You are commenting u...
