Have you heard of the Living Kitchen Farm & Dairy in Bristow? Around here it’s known as “the farm that makes people cry,” since Chelsey and I both got misty-eyed when we first read about it. It just seems like a dream: growing and cooking and hosting—all at your homey home. Conventional wisdom taught Lisa [...]

Pizza
Posted in Eating Out, Pizza, Tomatoes on December 14, 2008 | 7 Comments »
I love making pizza! I also love that Matt worked at Papa John’s for 3.5 years, so he’s a pro at rolling out the dough. We get whole wheat dough balls from Earth Elements. They are yummy and convenient. I’ve tried making my own, but it didn’t turn out so well. If you have a [...]
Scientific Evidence of What We Already Knew
Posted in Big Food, Eating Out, Meat, Media, Status Quo on November 13, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Authors of a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences tested for carbon and nitrogen isotopes in 480 servings of beef, chicken, and french fries. From these tests, the authors could tell that the animals were kept in confinement, ate a mostly-corn diet, and maybe even ate their own poo. Very [...]
Fast Food Nation
Posted in Big Food, Eating Out, Meat, Media, Status Quo on October 19, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Several weeks have passed since I watched Fast Food Nation, and I still can’t get it out of my head. The movie weaves fact—from the nonfiction book of the same name—into a fabricated plot. It’s an odd format, but the message is the same: fast food drives the demand for massive amounts of cheap meat, [...]
This little piggy…

While I was in New Orleans a few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of eating at Cochon. And now when I think about the place, I start salivating. I learned of the restaurant on a morning bike ride. I can’t remember your name—but thank you so much, Patience from Austin, Texas, for telling me [...]

Food for Thought

Last night was Green Drinks at Trattoria il Centro (beware of the music on the Trattoria site). This time we learned a bit about permaculture and organic gardening in Oklahoma. There was also a seed exchange; I traded purple coneflower seeds for an awesome book on off-grid living and some cucumber, cherry tomato, and cinnamon [...]
Swanky Supper

Last night I got to go to The Coach House! A group of coworkers and I went for a Made in Oklahoma Coalition event. It was a delicious meal with excellent service. We even got to hear from Chef Kurt on where some of the food came from. The restaurant was dark and cozy. It [...]

Excellent article in the Tulsa World on a restaurant enthusiastically supporting local food and culture. Can’t wait to try out the Thyme Bistro next time I’m in Tulsa.
Put A Wedge In It
Posted in Beer and Wine, Eating Out, Pizza on February 7, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
A new pizza place has come to town. It’s The Wedge Pizzeria on Western. There’s been a little buzz on account of the locally sourced ingredients, the brick oven in what used to be a salon, and the atypical/gourmet toppings. My waitress didn’t know the specifics of the local ingredients—just that when they get them, [...]
