Introduction	I can assure you that a career that revolves around food does not begin in an office in front of a computer. It all starts with a taste of something amazing that begins the search for more. That's what leads to me to some of the most amazing farms, markets and people in Ohio and beyond. I'm the author of two cookbooks, Farms and Foods of Ohio: From Garden Gate to Dinner Plate (Hippocrene Books, 2007) and The Locavore's Kitchen (Swallow Press, 2011) and my writing appears in numerous local, regional, and national publications. My newest book is Cleveland's West Side Market: 100 Years & Still Cooking (University of Akron Press, 2012), coauthored with Laura Taxel, a notable Cleveland journalist. It is a historic and nostalgic look at this famous public Market through the building, the food, the people, the memorable moments and the shopping experience. Enjoy the blog!
