Suzanne Peabody Ashworth and Jim Mills What a great gastronomic weekend! We started early on Saturday and visited the grand opening of the East Bay Culinary Center.

One of the greatest things about living in the Sacramento area is our close proximity to everything that Northern California has to offer… a two hour drive east lands you in Lake Tahoe, two hours west and you’re in San Francisco. There are so many delicious day trips a Sacramento foodie can take; it’s nearly [...]
California has so many beautiful wine regions and I had the pleasure of visiting several wineries in the Santa Cruz Mountains this weekend. Nestled among the redwoods, this was very different than the Napa Valley experience and the drive through the mountains was truly breathtaking. Although we tasted everything from a light Sauvignon Blanc to [...]
Last night my husband and I found ourselves at 16th & J in Midtown during rush hour with parking spots secured. I had been wanting to try Bistro 33, so we made it just in time for their nightly “Appy Hour.” For a reasonable sum, we feasted on crab & artichoke dip with crunchy toasted baguette, [...]
Java City’s Nick Tucker pours samples of French-pressed Ethiopia Sidamo This month’s Second Saturday Art Walk served up a smorgasbord of art, food, fashion and music for culture-hungry Sacramentans.

The downtown plaza has a great farmers’ market on Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. We usually head over at lunch time, but last week we had a staff meeting so ended up going close to 2:00, which ended up being very fortuitous for us as you can get incredible bargains! The farmers bagged [...]
I was in Des Moines for business a few weeks back and had the pleasure of visiting the test gardens for Better Homes and Gardens magazine. It was incredible! The head gardener has broken the garden into separate sections from evergreens to heirloom tomatoes and peppers. We even stumbled upon them doing a photo shoot [...]
Here’s two coffee-cups up to Steady Eddy’s coffee house in Winters. We dropped in this weekend for a light lunch and got more than we bargained for – good food, friendly service and a pleasant atmosphere that fostered a gentle hum of conversation among locals and cyclists passing through on their way from Davis [...]
It was a night that couldn’t have been more perfect at The Shack on Thursday, August 9, yet it was still “the pits!” Actually, just one pit, a hand-built-for-the-occasion roasting pit, that yielded the succulent spread for “Food From a Hole Night.” At about 7:30 PM, Chef Gary and his buddy “Kiwi Bob,” with [...]
