Photo: today’s office outside at The Granitorium
[tweetmeme]As much as I love the air conditioning at Design Annex during these crazy hot days, sometimes I like to work from home outside. I recently cleaned up the picnic table area at The Granitorium (aka where I live with Nick and Chris) so it's a lot more appealing to sit outside and work. Or...

Photo of green curry with tofu at Ronnarong
For years I didn't think I liked Thai food -- it generally underwhelmed me and I never sought it out. But then there's Ronnarong in Somerville's Union Square -- an explosion of tasty awesomeness.

TAZA chocolate Factory Tour: Grinding the Cocoa Nibs
The final installment of my TAZA chocolate tour of their Somerville factory is here! In this video, co-founder Alex Whitmore describes how cocoa nibs are ground. During the grinding process, the cocoa transforms from a solid to liquid because the nibs are oily with 50-55% cocoa butter. [blipit id="1925662"] Part 1: How The Roaster Works....
Sooz TV: Tour of TAZA chocolate in Somerville — How The Roaster Works
TAZA chocolate gave tours of their facility in Somerville on December 6th. I've tried to use their chocolate for my truffles and they never turned out all that great.
