  • Portland: Olympic Provisions




    If you live in Portland, you probably have a crush on Olympic Provisions. As you should! Olympic Provisions is Oregon's first salumeria, handcrafting over a dozen salamis and cured meats. These folks are dedicated to their craft and it shows. Even their branding & packaging is impeccable!

    And if by chance you're not able to visit either of the 2 Olympic Provisions restaurant & deli locations (or drop by a local Portland market for your fix), you can shop their complete meaty selection in their online shop. So good!

    A true cured-meat devotee? Join Olympic Provisions' Salami of the Month Club (bottom image) starting at $135 for 12 months.

  • 3 Tips to the Perfect Pantry



    Dreaming of the perfect pantry? I've got 3 tips to get you there in a jiffy.

    Tip no. 1: Don't buy processed, packaged food. They'll make your pantry look junky. If you do, then at least dump the contents into a jar (unless the packaging is really pretty, of course...)  The goal to all those pretty jars? Whole food ingredients.

    Tip no. 2: Use jars. Lots of jars of all shapes & sizes. It's not only practical (you can see what's inside!) but it looks cohesive & pretty as well.  I love Weck for smaller things. A set of large natural baskets is always useful too.

    Tip no. 3: A simple, clean and sturdy shelf.  Whether you have an actual pantry room, closet/cupboard or something makeshift a perfect pantry has great shelves. Keep it clean &  well organized and you'll be the envy of the 'hood.
