A fab holiday fun session with Lee Anne Wong, Chef, TV Food Network personality and entrepreneur who wisely and freely riffs off practical cooking stories and tips while Marja creates St Nikolas' Marzipan Truffles...

The handsome and shy Spanish actor and photographer Fernando Iglesias visited this session to talk about Pedro Almodovar's latest movie, in which he makes a brief appearance, to share some fabulous soup, and to visit with his old friend Miss Chibi.

80 is the new 50! Everyone should have someone like Betty Fussell in their lives. A beautiful soul and person, she is an engaging, informed, open-minded, friendly, timeless scholar who happens to write about food, history and (therefore) politics.

Marja Samsom, the extraordinary Dumpling Diva, utilizes this season's summer best with a fresh salad. Magic peaches grown on a once empty lot, whole basil leaves, spinach, and thinly cut fennel all combine to produce a nice refreshing flavor.

You may not have your own garden or be able to see a bit of green outside your window but the relationship between food and landscape still manages to affect your life. Marja explains why, while cooking up a delicious asparagus salad. Live it up.

Marja, our Dumpling Diva, has treated us to the sweet version of this historic treat and now, expanding our palate into savory, she starts up a new batch with homecured wild salmon embedded in these baby cakes.
