Hello! Long time, no post. I’ve actually been on another epic Southwest roadtrip, so I’ve been unable (too lazy) to post but I’m back home in Portland now and I have some exciting news. I’ve been chosen to be part of the “Fresh Catch Crew”, which is a group of food bloggers who will be posting about Alaskan Copper River Salmon this Summer and Fall. Awesome!

I should be getting my first shipment of Sockeye Salmon this week (sockeye is running huge and bountiful this year and the King is a bit smaller than expected…sometimes that happens!) and I’m really excited and already looking forward to a number of salmon recipes. So far, I’ve decided on making some lox and some hot smoked salmon with this first batch of sockeye. And probably more stuff too. It’ll be a total salmon adventure!
