Did you know that without honeybees, over a third of our global food supply would disappear? Even Albert Einstein once projected that if the bee disappears from the surface of the earth, man would have no more than four years to live.
Enjoy!

Arcadia Beer Tasting
After slurping down a few dozen oysters at my favorite raw bar, the Mermaid Oyster Bar, B and I headed over to The Village Pourhouse for a Beer 101 and Tasting. This was the second tasting event where I had gotten the tickets from Groupon. Tonight, the tasting showcased a wide variety of Arcadia Ales from Battle Creek, Michigan.

Dumpling-Making BDay Party
For my birthday last year, I rented out the VIP room at Blue Owl for a lively cocktail party. This year I decided to focus on the food, so I hosted a small dumpling-making birthday party at home with a handful of friends. I haven't made dumplings since my early teenage years while living in the middle of Indiana. Thanks to Grace of gracenotes nyc and my mom (who didn't think that I could pull this off), I had a pretty good idea of how to make the filling and run the show.

Shucking Oysters with Laurence Edelman
On Thurday, I got a chance to learn how to shuck oysters with a true expert: Laurence Edelman, executive chef at The Mermaid Oyster Bar and The Mermaid Inn. Gaining hands-on experience with oyster shucking was one of the first things on my 2010 resolution list. Not only was this "birthday gift" super fun to learn, it's a gift that just keeps on giving. (Free agent oysters out there: you better watch out.)
