    Weekend Bonus:Free Wine Tastings

    Image from the Russian Foods Market TourAs I've mentioned, I've been reluctant to commit to having this as a guaranteed regular feature on the site because, I mean, enough's enough, really.

    But then this week, I heard from Facebook fan that she'd used this last weekend to go to three free tastings (awesome!). AND, this week I posted the Russian Foods Market Tour, featuring this picture of Georgian wines...and wouldn't you know it, there's a FREE! tasting of Georgian wines this very Sunday.  

    So how could I NOT post this round-up today?  And, voila, here it is...

    On the Menu This Weekend 3/5/10-3/7/10

    Normally I am here to be your bacchanalian cheerleader, let’s eat it, drink it, merry it up!

    But every once in a while, I have to bring out the Stern Lecture. And today is such a day. Today I must once again deliver the “Don’t wait until the last minute to make plans” lecture.

    You might be wondering: what brought this on? It’s not Valentine’s Day or New Year’s Eve.  Why would a Stern Lecture be necessary during some random week in March?

    Seattle St. Patrick's Day 2010

    We are just a couple weeks away from St. Patrick's Day!  It's time to eat soda bread, drink a Guinness, and take a shot of Jameson (or maybe just eat a cupcake made with it).

    New Feature! World Food Market Tours: Russian & Eastern European Food

    I am very excited to announce the newest feature on Fresh-Picked Seattle!

    Like many people who love to cook, I am fascinated by the food products of other countries. Also like many people who love to cook, I love to visit the grocery stores in foreign countries almost as much as I like to visit a museum or tourist hot spot. What better way to try to learn about another culture than to see how everyday folks like me feed themselves their regular meals?
