Yes, I’m reposting a blog from November…. But in honor of the Oscars tonight — here it is again. :) Go see The Artist. Right now.

Welcome to my kitchen! Introductions all ‘round..
A Colorado girl by birth, and now an LA girl for life, I spend my life telling stories, living life with friends, and cooking for pretty much everyone. In the past year and a half, I’ve had to change a lot of what I’ve been eating - for a variety of reasons - but I LOVE food. So, as part of my newly gluten-free, nearly vegan kitchen - I plan to throw a lot of (nearly) vegan dinner parties.
I occasionally throw in non-Lynn-approved ingredients when I’m cooking for other people, but I’ll always make a note of it.
Come hang out for a while - and enjoy! It may be a little on the raw side, a little more on the unfinished end of the spectrum. But it’s me.
The more important question is - who are you?
