What a Difference a Year Makes!   Leave a comment

By Michelle Portesi

The last couple of years have been tough on all of California. The drought hurt everyone, and our lovely Lake Tahoe went below its natural rim, causing the Truckee River to stop flowing from its mouth at Tahoe City.

That may have made for some lovely seas of lupine where they normally wouldn’t be, but we’d much rather have the water.

We had a strong winter, which was enough to fill Lake Tahoe back to its natural rim, and once again, the Truckee River is flowing from the dam in Tahoe City. Who knows, we may even see some river rafting again this year!

And we’ve got more to come. Some of the peaks around the lake are still covered in snow, and more runoff is sure to make its way to the lake and the various streams and rivers. Rain still occasionally has been making an appearance, enough to keep everything looking lush and green. Keep it coming Mother Nature!

The Truckee River is flowing briskly, as is the Yuba River on Donner Summit and many streams and waterfalls along the way. It’s time to put on some hiking shoes or break out the bike and enjoy one of our lovely spring days along the body of water of your choice.

The Cooking Gallery – In Historic Downtown Truckee   Leave a comment

Cooking is like love. It should be entered into with abandon, or not at all ~ Harriet Van Horne

.

I’ve completely got the ‘entered into with abandon’ part down. In fact, I’d edit the phrase to wild abandon. I am admittedly a very messy cook. Good. But messy.

Fortunately for me, and other foodies and cooking enthusiasts, there is a veritable two story Mecca for kitchen gadgets, unique entertainment wares and various do-dads close by. Dubbed a toy store for adults, the Cooking Gallery in Old Downtown Truckee is just the place to find every conceivable culinary tool or hard to find gastronomic item. As I belong to a gourmet group, it’s my first – and usually last – go to place to find some tart pan, custard cup or ingredient required by an obscure recipe I’m cooking that can’t be found at the usual suspects (the grocery store).

Downstairs, locals and second homeowners alike, will find the most necessary of appliance and cooking needs for any kitchen.  Coffee and espresso machines, Kitchenaid mixers with various attachments, sharp knives and round pie plates. Near the back are gourmet sauces, dressings, spices and specialty baking needs.

Upstairs are beautiful serving and table ware accoutrements, candles, gift ware and linens. Just the finishing touch you’ll need to show off those fabulous meals you spent all day slaving in the kitchen for.

Delight you palate and impress your guests by visiting The Cooking Gallery. They are located on Donner Pass Road in Old Downtown Truckee next to the Truckee Variety Store.

Open 7 days a week.
