“The first thing I remember tasting and then wanting to taste again is the grayish-pink fuzz my
grandmother skimmed from a spitting kettle of strawberry jam. I suppose I was about four.”

The magic of Tom Sietsema?
• A bumper crop of interesting new restaurants
• Crusty veal schnitzel oozes kaymak, similar to clotted cream, with every slice; the richness of the strapping dish, bedded on mashed
potatoes, is cut with caper relish
• Rosy rib-eye massaged with Old Bay rests on a pool of sweet corn and picks up delicate crunch from grilled okra
• turnips …staged around a scarlet scoop of beet sorbet.
• the artful gin and tonics

“Magenta morning: cherry trees in bloom. Inhaling color. Blood orange juice. Warm biscuits. Sweet melting butter. Sliced
berries.”
“Huge gray clouds, moving fast. Sun shines on far mountains. Lawn bright.
Gorgeous chiaroscuro. Black beans. White rice. Salsa. Inside echo.”

Once a year – Total media silence
Every minute: watch, listen, learn and observe.
You are the storytellers of today.
