Hey foodie friends!

We’re in for a full, fun weekend with iconic events like the Soapbox Derby, the Belmont Library re-opening, Yard Share, and more! Lots of exciting summer flavors to enjoy while we’re out–hello orange creamsicle non dairy at Eb + Bean. Who’s joining? I’ll be collecting neighborhood plums and blackberry u-picking while I recipe test fruity baked goods. As burger week winds down I hope you found some solid plant-based options (share the deets, please!)

Here’s to another veg lovin’ PDXFUL weekend!
