The Eatsdropper is too old to bartend
So I turned 45 last week. The salt has nearly overtaken my pepper. I'm fatter than I'd like, for reasons that are not even remotely mysterious. I make less money than I'd like at this stage, but as a result…
The Eatsdropper, Whole Foods Edition
I recently was invited to check out the new Steep Brew Taproom at Whole Foods SoMa as a guest. It's the second taproom in a Whole Foods in the city, probably the last. (The other is in the Potrero Hill location.)…
The Eatsdropper’s chocolate chip cookies are oooooold
Happy Friday, kittens! I'm just back from a few days in Sacramento for a fun and informational trip with Muir Glen. I lived there for a relatively brief stint 24 years ago, and was really blown away by how the…
The Eatsdropper has so much … everything in it

I know I've been far from prolific lately. One would think that, being self-unemployed and all, I'd have nothing but time to cook and write and entertain you with my kitchen shenanigans. Fact is, while I have been cooking a…
Oh my god, the Eatsdropper is my mother!
Hey, remember these? I can't believe it's been over four months since I've published an Eatsdropper. So long has it been, that I've managed to stockpile a bunch overheard just by yours truly, many from my now former place of…
The Eatsdropper only eats white food
Happy New Year! I mildly lament not having something a little meatier for you for my last post of the year, but there you are. At least, I will leave you chuckling in the waning hours of 2009. In 2010,…
The Eatsdropper really likes hippie food
Yesterday's excursion to Napa was not solely for the enjoyment of the turning leaves on grapevines, though that was a lovely fringe benefit. We met up with an old friend (well, she's not old; she's younger than us ... you…
The Eatsdropper cooks with no salt
Back on the road today, returning from several days in Sea Ranch. Here's a few tidbits to tide you over until tomorrow. Keep'em coming my way at eatsdropper-at-seantimberlake-dot-com. Cheers, mates! Man talking to friend: "I cook with no salt. I…
