Happy 2024 + Cooking Class Discount

Hello everyone!

Happy New Year and welcome to all the new PTFS subscribers! I hope 2024 started off well for you.

I just returned from two weeks on the islands of Kauai (morning vista above) and Oahu — where a jacket was seldom required. Now back in Santa Cruz and sitting at my desk, I’m dressed in layers and wearing wool socks.

My mainland brain is still a bit fuzzy still but I have much to report from Hawaii — grocery shopping gems, dining tips, and incredible botanical sightings. I’ll do it in spurts to not overwhelm you so let me get organized first.

Meantime, my friends at Milk Street Kitchen are generously offering a discount for our upcoming January 30 virtual cooking class.

What’s on the January 30 class menu?

Some fun recipes from Ever-Green Vietnamese — a terrific banh mi lettuce wrap (yes, you read that right!) plus an easy but slightly tricky candy. I designed the menu to be loaded with takeaways for you to apply to your Viet cooking adventures elsewhere.

Recipes are included in the registration, in case you don’t already have the book. If you cannot make the class, it will be recorded.
