    Going to try to cook on my gas grill. Have some wood chips to smoke a bit. Will see how it goes.

    Had my induction range take a big shit on me a few weeks ago. $1600 to fix it, so I just bought a new one (of course it’s backordered until the first part of December). Anyways, we’ve been managing to still eat very well the past three weeks by cooking everything on a grill, a cheap $25 electric skillet, and an Instapot. Should have been filming these cooking adventures for Instagram/Tik Tok.

    Anytime imaway from my gas range, I'm sad.  Spent last week away, cooking on a non gas stove top.

    You like induction?  
    Did you need to buy specific new pots/pans?

    I'm starting a new project tomorrow, cooking 300 unique soups. Hurray! It may take many years. I will draft poems as I cook the soups. Pretty awesome! I plan to post images, but I may need better equipment. Currently, my soups taste good, but look like sludge. 

    I usually begin food projects when the time is right. In Seattle from 1995-1996 I visited 200 cafes and wrote draft poems about the coffee or the experience or the food. It was a great way to get to know Seattle. I posted the list and final poem cuts on Blogger.

    From 2010-2011 I visited 300 cafes and wrote blog posts that I posted to Tumbler.

    As I have a diet restriction (low fat), all of the yummy café food, and the lattes are in the past. Also, I'm not using social media to document my journey. I'm using pen and paper. No better time to take my cooking skills to another level. For the white bean with poblano pepper soup I cook tomorrow I will broil peppers. I don't remember ever using a broiler. Onward to awesomeness!

    I absolutely love induction. Heats as fast as gas, maintains a precise temperature, and the stove cools to the touch fairly quick and spills don’t bake on. I won’t get anything else now.

    As for specific pots/pans, stainless and cast iron work (which is what I had before switching to induction).

    I love grilling too, but here in Minnesota grilling outside isn’t much fun from December - February when it’s below zero with a -20 wind chill…

    95-96 i was back and forth from Bering Sea, Ballard and capital hill.  Frequented BausHaus a bunch.  Loved their Mochas.

    Hit the Reading Terminal Market today as I picked up my bin for this weekend.  Love Amy food market but especially this place.  Went with a dozen oysters and some skrimp dumplings from Sang Kee (irresistible to me), along with some beautiful king salmon and tuna steaks for dinner
