Celebrate with pumpkin cupcakes

October 15, 2013

Before I present my Halloween themed column, I am thrilled to share information about an exciting, unique and delicious event and dining experience. The inaugural “Farm to Table Harvest Celebration” is Saturday, Nov. 2, and encompasses the philosophy of “eating local.” I was fortunate to preview the menu, which showcases South Valley produce, beef breed and feed in Santa Clara County and local wines. The talents of seven chefs are featured with wine pairings for each course. If you have a passion for food, do not miss this event. It is anticipated to become a premiere food experience in the entire bay area. Details: Santa Clara County Farm Bureau at (408) 776-1684.

It’s a walk in a natural park interrupted by occasional roars from the happy crowd, announcements on the first tee … please welcome our 11:22 a.m. pairing … Two-time major champion Angel Cabrera from Argentina … and next to tee off 1997 British Open Champion Justin Leonard from Dallas, Texas ... and bellows from the beer-for-birdies bunch at the pavilion aside the 17th green.

Getting Out: A special journey on the John Muir Trail

October 10, 2013

The John Muir Trail is surely the most famous and the most beautiful wilderness path in the lower 48 states. Beginning at an elevation of 4,000 feet in Yosemite Valley, the trail follows the crest of the Sierra Nevada for 221 miles over eleven mountain passes to the summit of Mt.
