We got so distracted by the article about martinis in yesterday’s Washington Post Food section that we almost forgot to give you the link to the annual CSA directory for the DC area: Where to Sign Up for a CSA.

Also in yesterday’s Food section: a brief review of John Torode’s cookbook, “Beef and Other Bovine Matters.” Torode is the owner of Smiths of Smithfield and a regular food personality on the those chefy sort of shows on the BBC.

The Post tested a few recipes from the book and praised them, although they did offer up alterations that reduced the copious amounts of oil that Torode apparently likes to cook with.

I swiped this link from digg. Just in time for St. Patrick’s Day: Guinness Stout Beef Stew.
