It’s OK. Pull in there. It need not intimidate you. The perennial performance art event happening in that small studio just off the Hotchkiss campus is, in fact, created in part for you. Get out of your car and watch the artists do their thing. I mean, if you can get in. It’s not full-on public there, of course. Tickets are easy to come by only if you know somebody.

Ramen. No mystery. “It’s soup with noodles in it, topped with stuff,” David Chang tells us. In 2003, this Korean-American chef opened Momofuku Noodle Bar, a modest spot with a counter, backless stools and a very shaky start in Manhattan’s East Village, and now Chang’s company oversees various restaurants around the world with waiters, wine lists, reservations and a reverent press.

How to Harvest and Save Your Summer Tomatoes

Cynthia Hochswender

It’s not that the tomatoes broke my spirit or anything. I just couldn’t face growing them again this year. 
And it turns out that was a good decision. This was not a banner year for tomatoes; it was too cool and wet. There wasn’t a hideous blight like the one we  had a few years ago, but everyone I know who has tomato plants has complained to me that they’ll feel lucky if they get some ripe fruit by October.

Chinese banquet food never thrilled me. Jelly fish and sea cucumbers I could live without.  But tree ears, those  dark, chewy, beautiful, black, tender blossoms, a  fungus grown on trees, now there’s a treat. And like many foods in China, mo-er mushrooms are said to have a medicinal value. They improve breathing, people said, circulation and well being.
