The Savage Feast Is Back: Why I’m Starting Over
It’s been over a decade since I last updated this blog. Back then, The Savage Feast was mostly a place for recipes—a creative outlet for my husband, Chris, and I during a different chapter in our lives. But like most things, I’ve changed. My values have deepened. My priorities have shifted. And now, this space…

Granola... not just for breakfast
Chris and I were walking the dogs the other day at Hudson Mills Metro Park in Dexter when we noticed that the maple trees were all set up to collect maple sugar. I did a story about this last year and think making my own maple syrup would be the coolest thing. However, not this year. You can tell by the infrequence of posts lately that I have become very busy. Maybe next year.

In addition to…

Maple sugaring, pure and simple
Ever wonder how maple syrup is made? Well, I did. Luckily, just down the road from my house, is Hudson Mills Metropark and they have tours on the weekends in March to show you just how the process works. When I called to reserve a spot in one of the tours, I explained that I…
