Since 2001, I designed, produced, managed and contributed to mostly food-related websites and blogs for KQED including: KQED.org; KQED Food; Bay Area Bites; Check, Please! Bay Area; Taste This; Celebrity Chefs; seven of Jacques Pepin's TV series websites; and Joanne Weir's Cooking in the City. I initiated the majority of KQED Food's social media feeds and maintained them up until 2017. As far as content creation, photography is my passion and I also shoot video and write stories. My photos have been used in articles for KQED Food, News, Arts, and Science as well as for promotional purposes in print and online. Professional education and training includes: clinical psychology, photography, commercial cooking, web design, information architecture and UX.",

Last year, about 1 in 7 people in the U.S. received food stamps, or SNAP benefits, as they're called. That's almost 48 million people, a record high.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the numbers \u003ca href=\"http://www.fns.usda.gov/pd/supplemental-nutrition-assistance-program-snap\">have started\u003c/a> to drop. In February, the last month for which figures were available, 1.6 million fewer people received food stamps than at the peak in December 2012, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which runs the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's really showing that the program is doing what it's designed to do,\" says \u003ca href=\"http://centeronbudget.org/experts/index.cfm?fa=view&id=36\">Dorothy Rosenbaum\u003c/a>, a senior fellow at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a left-leaning think tank. \"It expanded when the economy was weak and when unemployment was on the rise.

They expected there would be some delay as the benefits of the recovery began to be felt by more low-income Americans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rosenbaum says the trend is strong. Caseloads are falling in 47 states, and she anticipates that will continue as more and more people find work, and better-paying jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was able to find a new job, where I was making more money with a few more hours,\" says Katje Hopkins, of Portland, Ore. She, her husband and their infant son started receiving food stamps last year after her hours at a luxury car dealership were cut to only eight a week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hopkins says they recently stopped getting SNAP benefits because their economic situation had improved. Not only did she get a better job, her husband got a raise at the hardware store where he's assistant manager.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Hopkins says the $150 a month in food stamps was a big help when they needed it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It took care of about two weeks' worth of groceries out of the month,\" she says. \"And we were eating a lot at the time. I was nursing my son, and so my appetite had skyrocketed. ... So it really helped us get through that rough spot.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Hopkins also noticed in November that her benefits dropped by about $30 a month.

We're seeing that,\" says Tanner. \"The problem is we don't go back to pre-recession levels.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He and many Republicans complain that the program has grown out of control, in part because states waived work requirements for recipients during the recession. There's also been an aggressive effort by the government to sign up everyone who's eligible for help.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Rosenbaum says only 79 percent of those eligible for food stamps receive them.

Memorial Day may be a week away, but this spate of outdoor-patio, grillin' and beerin' weather is a good reminder that, by the calendar, there's less than a month until school lets out. If you've got kids, you know what that means: entertainment, in the shape of day camps, local trips, and visits to the cousins and grandparents, needs to be arranged as soon as possible, for everyone's sanity and fun, especially yours. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_81359\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/IsaiahCossandEliannaFriedmanbyJoshLeskar700.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/IsaiahCossandEliannaFriedmanbyJoshLeskar700.jpg\" alt=\"Isaiah Coss and EliannaFriedman Photo: JoshLeskar\" width=\"300\" class=\"size-full wp-image-81359\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Isaiah Coss and EliannaFriedman Photo: JoshLeskar\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>And while there are specialty camps for everything from \u003ca href=\"http://thecrucible.org/youth-programs/\">glassblowing and blacksmithing\u003c/a> in Oakland to \u003ca href=\"http://bayareawritingproject.org/2014-young-writers-camps/\">digital storytelling\u003c/a> in San Francisco, camps that give kids hands-on cooking experience are becoming ever more popular.

At the very least, I like to serve a fun drink (whether alcoholic or non), a \"main\" course which is generally savory, and something a little bit sweet and bread-y. Also, you want to strike a balance between dishes that can be (mostly) prepared in advance and some that might need some last-minute attention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This Mother's Day menu, which weighs heavily on springtime produce, has something for everyone: a fruity cocktail, a yummy vegetarian frittata, a hearty savory bread pudding, some little muffins, a glammed-up potato dish (everyone loves potatoes), and a fruit component that can act like dessert. Now I just need to get someone to make this for me on Mother's Day!\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_81365\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2014/05/07/little-springtime-strawberry-lemon-muffins/\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/final-muffin1000.jpg\" alt=\"Springtime Strawberry-lemon mini muffins.

At the very least, I like to serve a fun drink (whether alcoholic or non), a \"main\" course which is generally savory, and something a little bit sweet and bread-y. Also, you want to strike a balance between dishes that can be (mostly) prepared in advance and some that might need some last-minute attention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This Mother's Day menu, which weighs heavily on springtime produce, has something for everyone: a fruity cocktail, a yummy vegetarian frittata, a hearty savory bread pudding, some little muffins, a glammed-up potato dish (everyone loves potatoes), and a fruit component that can act like dessert.

After spending a weekend in London we decided to take a drive to the countryside and have a decadent lunch in the very lovely but “is-this-really-real?” town of \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bray\">Bray\u003c/a>. It’s kind of almost too gorgeous to believe. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of you may know, or not, that Bray is home to Heston Blumethal’s famous restaurant \u003ca href=\"http://www.thefatduck.co.uk/\">The Fat Duck\u003c/a>. Before you get all atwitter, we did not dine there (um, our daughter is 2 years old, so that was completely out of the question). Bray is also home to The Fat Duck’ sister restaurant, \u003ca href=\"http://www.hindsheadbray.com/\">The Hinds Head\u003c/a>. Which is really more of a fancy gastropub. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_81844\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 500px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/hinds-head10001.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/hinds-head10001.jpg\" alt=\"The Hinds Head in Bray.

I’m not kidding! Who knew swans could be crazy? It took us the entire rest of the trip to convince my daughter that there are also nice swans, such as the ones that live in the pond across from her Grandpa’s house in Edinburgh.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anyway, back to our fancy lunch at The Hinds Head. It was gorgeous and yummy and such a treat. Some of the highlights were the handmade Scotch eggs made with quail eggs, a very upscale fish pie, and Blumenthal’s famous thrice-fried chips. But one of the best things I has was my poached rhubarb and vanilla champagne cocktail I got before lunch when we were sitting in the very atmospheric bar. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_81842\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 500px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/rhubarb-vanilla-champagne-cocktail7001.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/rhubarb-vanilla-champagne-cocktail7001.jpg\" alt=\"Poached rhubarb and vanilla champagne cocktail at The Hinds Head.

Use it for lots of other things: make rhubarb soda by adding it to fizzy water, drizzle it over your yogurt, or drizzle it over vanilla pound cake or angel food cake and whipped cream. If you want to use the rhubarb pulp, remove the orange zest, let it cool and then refrigerate it for up to 3 days. You can then stir a big dollop of it into plain or vanilla yogurt for a yummy rhubarb treat!\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_81849\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/rhubarb-fizz-ingredients1000.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/rhubarb-fizz-ingredients1000.jpg\" alt=\"Rhubarb Fizz Cocktail ingredients.

After spending a weekend in London we decided to take a drive to the countryside and have a decadent lunch in the very lovely but “is-this-really-real?” town of \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bray\">Bray\u003c/a>. It’s kind of almost too gorgeous to believe. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of you may know, or not, that Bray is home to Heston Blumethal’s famous restaurant \u003ca href=\"http://www.thefatduck.co.uk/\">The Fat Duck\u003c/a>. Before you get all atwitter, we did not dine there (um, our daughter is 2 years old, so that was completely out of the question). Bray is also home to The Fat Duck’ sister restaurant, \u003ca href=\"http://www.hindsheadbray.com/\">The Hinds Head\u003c/a>. Which is really more of a fancy gastropub. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_81844\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 500px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/hinds-head10001.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/hinds-head10001.jpg\" alt=\"The Hinds Head in Bray.

I’m not kidding! Who knew swans could be crazy? It took us the entire rest of the trip to convince my daughter that there are also nice swans, such as the ones that live in the pond across from her Grandpa’s house in Edinburgh.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anyway, back to our fancy lunch at The Hinds Head. It was gorgeous and yummy and such a treat. Some of the highlights were the handmade Scotch eggs made with quail eggs, a very upscale fish pie, and Blumenthal’s famous thrice-fried chips. But one of the best things I has was my poached rhubarb and vanilla champagne cocktail I got before lunch when we were sitting in the very atmospheric bar. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_81842\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 500px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/rhubarb-vanilla-champagne-cocktail7001.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/rhubarb-vanilla-champagne-cocktail7001.jpg\" alt=\"Poached rhubarb and vanilla champagne cocktail at The Hinds Head.

They will also enable to you to clear out your fridge of leftover ingredients that you aren’t quite sure what to do with.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The recipe I’ve prepared here is hearty and rich, filled with nuggets of smoked sausage, sweet roasted red bell pepper, nutty creamy fontina cheese, and earthy thyme.

Discard all but 1 tbsp of the fat in the pan.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>In the same pan, melt the butter.

They tend to need to be cooked last minute, and generally need to be served hot. So poached, fried, even scrambled is usually off my list.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"BWueW9TPatHIDgwVFydogwqjOPQOuQn9\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I like frittata because it is one of the most versatile, easy, and so-not-time-consuming ways to serve eggs at brunch. Not only that, but you can serve it hot or at room temperature and no one will get annoyed that it’s not hot enough. That means you can make it ahead of time, or at least pop it in the oven just when your guests arrive (or wake up, depending).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Part of the whole versatile draw is also that you can throw JUST ABOUT anything into them. No, really. Bacon, ham, chicken, sausage, crab, potatoes, roasted peppers, corn, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, peas, the world is your oyster. Hell, you can even throw in some oysters and do a crazy Hangtown fry-inspired frittata.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This one is a favorite of mine. It’s the epitome of springtime, and it just looks pretty to boot.

They tend to need to be cooked last minute, and generally need to be served hot. So poached, fried, even scrambled is usually off my list.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I like frittata because it is one of the most versatile, easy, and so-not-time-consuming ways to serve eggs at brunch. Not only that, but you can serve it hot or at room temperature and no one will get annoyed that it’s not hot enough. That means you can make it ahead of time, or at least pop it in the oven just when your guests arrive (or wake up, depending).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Part of the whole versatile draw is also that you can throw JUST ABOUT anything into them. No, really. Bacon, ham, chicken, sausage, crab, potatoes, roasted peppers, corn, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, peas, the world is your oyster. Hell, you can even throw in some oysters and do a crazy Hangtown fry-inspired frittata.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This one is a favorite of mine. It’s the epitome of springtime, and it just looks pretty to boot. Loaded with asparagus, one of my absolute favorite vegetables, and plenty of herbs, buttery leeks, and tangy goat cheese, this would be a very welcome addition to my breakfast-in-bed on Mother’s Day.

I think they make the perfect addition to a brunch table offering up a yummy, sweet option that isn’t a pain to make. However, as much as I love muffins, I’m really picky about them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"sO3G6N3sYZQLEsuSvJlICYNqtueFcvQw\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First of all, I like fruity muffins. None of this chocolate-chocolate chip or stodgy bran with walnuts nonsense for me...I want fruit. As in, fruit in every bite. There is little that disappoints me more in a muffin than breaking it in half to reveal 3 blueberries. Rip off! Secondly, I don’t like weighty, heavy, dense muffins. I want light, fluffy muffins. Delicate and cake-like, but like a buttery layer cake not a pound cake.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And finally, I want them to have a balance of great flavor, and not be overwhelmed by sweetness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_81433\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/muffin-ingredients1000.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-81433\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/muffin-ingredients1000.jpg\" alt=\"Strawberry-lemon mini muffin ingredients.

They are superb both on their own (even slathered with a little homemade strawberry jam) or as an addition to a special brunch spread, such as Mother’s Day. I for one would love these to be served to me on a lovely tray alongside a cuppa tea, a mimosa, and a slice of frittata. Husband, are you listening?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A few things to note: look for the sweetest organic strawberries you can find. You can also make these in a standard 12 cup pan, just be sure to fill the cups nearly to the top and you might need to bake them for a few additional minutes. Also, instead of the crunchy sugar topping, you can sprinkle the tops with your favorite streusel if you like. Just be warned: these are addictive, you cannot stop at just one!\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_81436\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/cooked-muffins-tin1000b.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-81436\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/05/cooked-muffins-tin1000b.jpg\" alt=\"Fresh baked strawberry-lemon mini muffins in tin.

And they analyzed only six genes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there's growing \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/blogs/health/2013/09/23/224387744/how-a-pregnant-womans-choices-could-shape-a-childs-health\">evidence\u003c/a> from other studies that similar types of genetic changes may help determine a child's risk for some diseases, including diabetes, mental disorders and autism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Can diet affect other genes? What's the biological impact of those [DNA] modifications? At the moment we don't know the answer to those questions,\" says nutritionist \u003ca href=\"http://www.lshtm.ac.uk/aboutus/people/prentice.andrew\">Andrew Prentice\u003c/a>, who contributed to the study. \"But subsequent research we have — and haven't [yet] published — says it does matter.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now we're not talking about altering the DNA code itself — you know, the building blocks of genes, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.nature.com/scitable/content/the-four-bases-atcg-6491969\">ATGCs\u003c/a>? Rather, Prentice says the dietary effects he and his team have found seem to be changing whether genes are turned on or off in that earliest stage of embryonic development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This on-and-off switch is controlled by decorating the DNA with a special tag, called \u003ca href=\"http://www.nature.com/scitable/topicpage/the-role-of-methylation-in-gene-expression-1070\">methylation\u003c/a>. How much the six genes got tagged in the developing embryo depended on the levels of a few micronutrients in the mom's blood at the time of conception, Prentice and his team found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The team examined several B vitamins and nutrients associated with them. They couldn't pinpoint exactly which ones were most important. But in general, when several of these nutrients, including vitamin B2, were at lower levels in mom's blood, the six genes had less methylation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The vitamin levels [in all the women] weren't way out of the normal range either,\" Prentice says. \"If you took the blood to your doctor, he would say they were normal.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The team also found a link between the DNA methylation and mom's body mass index at the time of conception. The heavier the mother, the less methylation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And again, none of the moms were obese. \"There were no overweight women in this group,\" Prentice says. \"Even then, we found a strong link between the mother's BMI and methylation patterns.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For years, scientists have observed a similar phenomenon in mice: Diet and weight, at the time of conception, alter a baby's DNA methylation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To check for the effect in people, Prentice and his team turned to women in \u003ca href=\"https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/ga.html\">Gambia\u003c/a>. Families there rely on their gardens for most of their food, he says, \"so the weather patterns completely change the foods eaten throughout the year.\" In the rainy season, residents get fewer calories but more nutrient-rich vegetables. In the dry season, they have more calories but dishes are less vitamin-packed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think the study is great,\" says Duke University's \u003ca href=\"http://www.genome.duke.edu/directory/faculty/murphy/\">Susan Murphy\u003c/a>, who wasn't involved in the work. \"We've hypothesized that this time right around conception is a critical period. It's pretty exciting to see it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although the team only looked at six genes, Murphy says she thinks the effect shown in these stretches of DNA could reflect what's happening throughout the genome. \"They could be the canary in the coal mine,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Copyright 2014 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\">NPR\u003c/a>\u003c/em>. \u003c/p>\n\n",

And they analyzed only six genes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there's growing \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/blogs/health/2013/09/23/224387744/how-a-pregnant-womans-choices-could-shape-a-childs-health\">evidence\u003c/a> from other studies that similar types of genetic changes may help determine a child's risk for some diseases, including diabetes, mental disorders and autism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Can diet affect other genes? What's the biological impact of those [DNA] modifications? At the moment we don't know the answer to those questions,\" says nutritionist \u003ca href=\"http://www.lshtm.ac.uk/aboutus/people/prentice.andrew\">Andrew Prentice\u003c/a>, who contributed to the study. \"But subsequent research we have — and haven't [yet] published — says it does matter.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now we're not talking about altering the DNA code itself — you know, the building blocks of genes, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.nature.com/scitable/content/the-four-bases-atcg-6491969\">ATGCs\u003c/a>? Rather, Prentice says the dietary effects he and his team have found seem to be changing whether genes are turned on or off in that earliest stage of embryonic development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This on-and-off switch is controlled by decorating the DNA with a special tag, called \u003ca href=\"http://www.nature.com/scitable/topicpage/the-role-of-methylation-in-gene-expression-1070\">methylation\u003c/a>. How much the six genes got tagged in the developing embryo depended on the levels of a few micronutrients in the mom's blood at the time of conception, Prentice and his team found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The team examined several B vitamins and nutrients associated with them. They couldn't pinpoint exactly which ones were most important. But in general, when several of these nutrients, including vitamin B2, were at lower levels in mom's blood, the six genes had less methylation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The vitamin levels [in all the women] weren't way out of the normal range either,\" Prentice says. \"If you took the blood to your doctor, he would say they were normal.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The team also found a link between the DNA methylation and mom's body mass index at the time of conception. The heavier the mother, the less methylation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And again, none of the moms were obese. \"There were no overweight women in this group,\" Prentice says. \"Even then, we found a strong link between the mother's BMI and methylation patterns.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For years, scientists have observed a similar phenomenon in mice: Diet and weight, at the time of conception, alter a baby's DNA methylation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To check for the effect in people, Prentice and his team turned to women in \u003ca href=\"https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/ga.html\">Gambia\u003c/a>. Families there rely on their gardens for most of their food, he says, \"so the weather patterns completely change the foods eaten throughout the year.\" In the rainy season, residents get fewer calories but more nutrient-rich vegetables. In the dry season, they have more calories but dishes are less vitamin-packed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think the study is great,\" says Duke University's \u003ca href=\"http://www.genome.duke.edu/directory/faculty/murphy/\">Susan Murphy\u003c/a>, who wasn't involved in the work. \"We've hypothesized that this time right around conception is a critical period. It's pretty exciting to see it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although the team only looked at six genes, Murphy says she thinks the effect shown in these stretches of DNA could reflect what's happening throughout the genome. \"They could be the canary in the coal mine,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Copyright 2014 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\">NPR\u003c/a>\u003c/em>. \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
