Kate Selner

I love healthy scratch cooking, exploring new cuisines and ingredients, channeling my own Iron Chef, good bread, unusual wine varietals, cupcakes, recipe modification, gardening, the ripple effect, chasing down time, laughter, writing, good coffee, perfect sugar cookies, the wind in my hair, cross country skiing, kneeboarding, conversation, ice cream sundaes, Autumn, my lake home, a good book, bird watching, wood fires, fruit butters and my family.

I can't tolerate rudeness, disrespect, sauerkraut, bad manners, attaching a label to everyone and everything, snobbery, righteousness, soda pop, cows milk, raw onions, ignorance, bad grammar, typos, marigolds, fast food, animal cruelty, white bread, frozen pizza, cheap beer, bad wine, newscasts, nitpickers, Monopoly, politics, bullies, juniper berries and anything trendy.
