Hey foodie friends!

I yearn for the autumnal leaf pile and cooler weather. Ready to don my fall PNW apparel. In the meantime I’ll settle for a squash themed drink, a little spooky soft serve, and punny, ghoulish markets. How are you reveling in the last vestiges of still late summer? (Climate anxiety excluded.) I hope it’s with the excitement of someone seeing the decadent splendors of Portland’s changing foliage–quite possibly my favorite PDX moment. What an absolute treat.

Stay hungry,
Hawnuh Lee
