We’d hunker down to watch The Wonderful World of Disney and my mom would make a great dessert, or buttery popcorn. or, my favorite, bowls of ice cream. What I remember about eating ice cream is that my sisters and I […]

A Devilish Discovery: Unpack with the Scullery Maid
By Kevi Sutter
The unpacking continues…more white dishes have emerged from the shipping boxes in the shape of porcelain Deviled Egg Dishes. Watch out! Deviled eggs, or hard-boiled eggs in general, are slick little critters. This dish controls their roly-poly-slippy-slidy behavior by corralling each egg into its own private divot. Now, if you’re like me, you’re wondering why they are […]
Summer Gardening with the Scullery Maid: White Bowls & Cardboard Boxes
By Kevi Sutter
Instead of bright zinnias and marigolds adorning my front yard, I’ve got a pile of eight huge, cardboard boxes of inventory sitting in the driveway outside my house in North Bend. They’ve been delivered at various times over the past two weeks. I’ve covered them with a gigantic, discolored tarp to protect them from the weather and […]
Welcome: The Perfect Press
By Kevi Sutter
According to conversations at kitchensink, the most loved and hated ingredient in recipes is garlic. The complaints against garlic are: difficulty removing the papery skin, overall stickiness, and smelly hands. “First World Problems” to be sure, but people tend to avoid using garlic because of them or choosing the pre-chopped jar variety or, worse still, dried. Nothing beats […]

Get Ready Cuz Here It Comes
By Kevi Sutter
This summer, I tended a vegetable garden that consisted of one cherry tomato plant and a pot of chives. Needless to say, there was no bounty. My root cellar is not stocked with my harvest. My freezer is void of any zip-locked bags dated and labelled for future use. Instead there’s a bag of fish guts waiting […]
Driving with Candles
By Kevi Sutter
Candles? In the car? It’s true! But in this case they were in my old Chevy truck. And to my delight, the pleasant commute between Issaquah and Roslyn was made even more enjoyable. I was sitting in the driver’s seat marveling at the beautiful mountains, trees and the shiny black SUV tailgating me much too […]
Rock, Paper…
