Patrick's Particulars

Patrick Staffler: Hello! Thanks for stopping by! My name is Patrick and I'm happy you are here. Welcome to my foodie adventure! I am fueled by my love of the arts and food! I live in Portland with my girlfriend (aka my in-house copy editor) and our two Japanese chins, Rhodie and Blitz. They are amazingly sweet animals, but make no mistake, they run our household! I love performing, laughter, music, deep conversation, spending time with friends and family, enjoying life’s little moments, and having a good time. So why a food blog you ask? Well, I am an amateur but passionate foodie who loves good, simple food! I enjoy sharing what I’m learning, trying new things, and helping anyone who is interested to learn more or just be excited about what can be achieved in the kitchen with a few basic tools and tricks. I am working to expand my knowledge each day and bring those new discoveries to you. What can you expect? I hope you will find some amazing dishes, tricks, and tools for you to use every day in your own kitchen at home. Also, perhaps you will enjoy some stories of my life, pictures of our furry companions. Here's to our journey of discovering simple and delicious food!
