I live on an island in Alaska’s panhandle with my husband and small child.   

Moving here more than 10 years ago ignited my pioneer/foodie spirit and I have been on a quest to kill, gather, grow, and preserve as much food as I could. Won’t you join me?

I’m from a place where you can grow tomatoes outside in the summer. Now I live in a place where I can grow tomatoes in my living room with a tremendous amount of effort.

The name of this blog is a play on a terrible bumper sticker found in America’s Last Frontier Resource Extraction State. I will post a picture once I find one. It is a simple white rectangle that says, “Cut Kill Dig Drill.”
