Welcome to Four Eyes Forum, a meeting place to exchange news and views on food, food photography, the word on food, food science, style and architecture. Join me, the blogger who wears glasses, in this world as I throw out engaging stuff that I think you'll find interesting, beautiful and delicious. As Charles Dudley Warner, American editor and writer, said,
"Lettuce, like conversation, requires a good deal
of oil, to avoid friction, and keep the company
smooth....You can put anything, and the more
things the better, into salad, as into a conver-
sation, but everything depends upon the skill of
mixing."


That's my job.

Tomato Season, At Last!

We're at the height of the summer season at farmers' markets everywhere, and here in Sonoma County, CA the Early Girl tomatoes are finally in abundance. I wait all year for this variety,
as a child does Christmas, and I mean with that degree of industrious yearning. And then, it's July and they're here, the wait is over and the ecstasy lasts longer than Christmastide. The Early Girl's sweetness makes clear its fruit classification, and to eat one warm, just picked, with a little Sicilian salt is heaven on earth. Especially if it's from Soda Rock Farm in the Alexander Valley outside Healdsburg. Amen.
