My friend Mike is fond of referring to us as the northernmost outpost of Marin county.

I had a "Hey, I know that name moment.

Good article, too.

Welcome to HO, @SaltyOpinionsUnlimited ! Yours was post #1600 on this thread! You’re just a bit south of me in location.

Looking forward to seeing your posts. Lots of recipes (personal, cookbooks, and links from the web) get shared on the monthly What’s for Dinner (WFD) and Cookbook of the Month (COTM), and the Dish of the Quarter (DOTQ) threads.

Here are the latest threads, but look for those tags in parenthese if you want to read further back.

Many, many years ago we so we spent several
years in El Paso. About midway through, my husband quipped, are you aware that you haven’t pronounced “ing” in maybe six months!

On the other side of the coin, the New Orleans bred mother of one of my students asked me, “Mrs P, where are you from?” I answered “San Francisco.” She snapped her fingers and replied, “ I KNEW I recognized your accent!”

  • Brooklyn, NY
  • Nice food :slight_smile: Fat food, meat!
  • Romanian food is my favorite!
  • I’m not a pro but cooking is my love!
