liz crain brings spring to dovetail bakery

 welcome to spring!

i was taking a walk the other day and look who came out to greet me! like clockwork the crocus and daffodils bloom this time every year, and i am so thankful because this is the time of year when i wake up everyday hoping that it will be sunny and springy outside, but we all know that most days... it's not. thankfully there have been other exciting things to look forward to, like meeting liz crain! she writes a blog that i love called food lovers guide to portland  and is working on a book by the same name. her photos are beautiful and her i love her writing. it is honest & focused & funny.


this is a photo she took of blueberry muffins on their way in the oven. you can see the rest of the post on her blog. we talked about the bakery, she met lauren and marly, and then i couldn't resist asking her about a food hero we have in common, sandor katz author of wild fermentation and the revolution will not be microwaved. if you haven't already read his books, you really should. wild fermentation is an old favorite of mine and it can often be found on my bedside table. what could be more relaxing than falling asleep thinking about sauerkraut, honey wine, and sourdough bread? i asked her about interviewing him at his home at tennessee & told her of my long term scheme/plan/dream to have sandor come to portland and teach a fermenting workshop. all around i had a great time meeting liz and i hope you all get a chance to enjoy her writing. thanks liz!
