When people who know how much community nutrition you do invite you to come raid their supply closet and take whatever you can use🫶😘

For sure you'll see these in use in upcoming classes at Griffin Health's teaching kitchen and elsewhere across Lower Naugatick Valley.

This winter I've been making a large pot of soup at least weekly, sometimes twice a week! So far we've had chili, creamy squash bisque, minestrone, ham and navy bean, tomato vegetable with barley and homemade creamy tomato.

Anyone out there have a new soup recipe I can try? I keep lots of staples on hand, including stock, tomato sauce, various vegetables and meats. I think I'm looking for something less heavy this week as I've got some great sourdough rolls to enjoy with it.

Give me your best shot!

Growing up on the island of Maui was a particularly eclectic experience. As a minority, my palate was introduced to the cultural foods of the Hawaiian, Filipino, Chinese, Japanese and Portuguese people - a far cry different from the meat & potatoes German food I'd known.

Today, The Splendid Table will feature why Hawaii kight just be the greatest cultural experience for your taste buds!

“My Great Grandfather was my main inspiration for growing food. Growing up in Trinidad and Tobago I recall harvesting cocoa, sugar cane, mangoes, yams, bananas other fruits with him.

After moving to the United States, I stopped gardening for many years, but regained my passion for gardening as I needed an outlet for my daily almost 200 mile commute. I garden as a stress reliever; I find gardening extremely therapeutic”.

ICYMI: Last Friday, the CT Commission on Women, Children, Seniors, Equity & Opportunity released its 2025 Food Insecurity Report....

The bottom line - food insecurity for CT has risen, now meeting the national average (16%) and even though CT is looking to allocate more dollars towards many efforts, we can't possibly make up for the loss of Federal money.

Link in bio for the full (30 mins or so) report with some great info graphics as well as how CT will prioritize efforts to address this issue.

I still believe we can redirect and recover food - together with the work being done by our food pantries and hubs - to feed our citizens. Let's mobilize!

A few weeks ago, I led a workshop on cooking with dried beans. So you can imagine my delight when I listened to a recent episode on beans!

Beans are delicious...and they are so many more varieties than we find in the supermarket. Not to mention they're a regenerative crop AND most varieties are native to the Americas.

Whether you want to eat healthier in 2026 or are simply looking for a lower cost option to meat, consider cooking a pot of beans each week. Look for them at your local farmer's market or get heirloom varieties from . And if you need recipe inspiration, check out .supporter for innovative ideas

Forget the news...and make it a point to connect with REAL people in this season of renewal.

Last weekend, I gathered with some amazing folks, talking about their passions and projects around communal healing, spirituality, hospitality as nourishing, the American dream, housing for all and immigrants' contribution to our society and economy.

Proof that there is good happening by good human beings despite what headlines pummel us with.
