A Meal Without Wine: Just a Little Recent Food Porn

What's This All About?

If you’ve visited this site before, you might notice some changes. We’ve re-focused on cooking as creativity; interesting meals; wine pairings. In short, more food, still some wine, but seldom wine reviews.

We've also added a new author to our site. Pat Hoffman is an accomplished cook and writer, who lives in upstate New York. She writes about healthy meals, unique recipes, and all things food & wine.

By the way, you won’t find a comments section here. We long ago grew tired of sniping, comment spam, and uninformed opinions. Read us if you enjoy what we have to say. If you have a polite question or comment, please feel free to contact us through the Who Are We section below.

Who Are We?

Ken Hulick has been a writer, editor, photographer, and chef for decades. His foodie background includes being a private chef, working at a cheesemonger and Italian deli, and writing food and wine articles. He is writing a food/cooking/creativity book (not a cookbook) tentatively called The Cooking School of Life – you might occasionally see excerpts here. He also manages an art gallery on Canyon Road in Santa Fe.

He was also the creative director and a writer/photographer for California Grower magazine (an agricultural trade publication). His professional career has been primarily as a marketing and branding consultant to a variety of clients in several different industries, as well as a lot of freelance magazine writing and photography.

Francesca Campbell Hulick is an oil painter and photographer. She prepares great meals when Ken lets her in the kitchen.

Pat Hoffman is executive director of a museum in New York, whose background also includes public relations, development, and art management. Her cooking is healthy, creative, and intriguing.

Feel free to drop us a polite note on any topic.

Disclosure:

We write this blog for fun. We offer our honest opinions and commentary about the topics we choose to discuss.

Although the world runs on “grease,” none seems to flow our direction – no free wines, no free winery tours. Should we ever accept any freebies, and subsequently write about that wine, winery, company, or destination, we will disclose that information in our review. Our review will still carry our honest opinion – positive, negative, or neutral.

Secondly, we are not part of any affiliate marketing program. We get no compensation from referrals if we write positively about a wine, winery, destination, product, or service. We get no revenue from any link to any site we refer to anywhere in our writing.

Lastly, we have no control over ads that Google posts on our site. We don’t even know the content of those ads, as they change frequently and at random. To be honest, we don’t even look at what’s being advertised.
