Tea under the sycamores with a hint of persimmons and kumquats lured a group of twenty docents from Quail Gardens in Encinitas to Fallbrook’s Beck Grove on a balmy 83-degree mid-November day. The group was cordially invited to an afternoon tea and grove tour by Helene Beck, owner. During the outing, the group discovered that the red and yellow persimmon leaves “turned” early this year and that Mexican guava is a pungent fruit that can be used as potpourri. It was a bit noisy when they watched the workers pulling out the citru... Full story

“Let’s Cook” focuses on cooking techniques that are fundamental to becoming a good cook. As Christmas gift buying season is upon us, today’s “lesson” is about how to select a cookbook. Cookbooks make great gifts. And with so many, many cookbooks available, having guidelines will save you time and money and cause you to be less susceptible to what I call the “pretty picture” syndrome. Here, then, are guidelines that have proven value to me: • Pretty pictures on the cover or inside a cookbook have their place. However, f...
