because beer is food: in cooking, at the table, and by the glass …
So begins the website of beer cook Lucy Saunders, whose birthday is today. Lucy has done much to promote both cooking with beer and enjoying food with beer through her books and other writings. She’s a treasure, in more ways than one. Join me in wishing Lucy a very happy birthday Lucy.
At the beer bistro in Toronto for Stephen Beaumont and Maggie’s wedding reception.

During CBC in Austin, Texas in 2007, at the Moonshine bar for an event with Lucy for her book, Grilling with Beer. Here, Lucy with three contributors to her book, myself included.

Here’s looking at you, kid!
Lucy- hope you have hoisted many good brews in celebration! Many thanx for including me & the San Andreas Malts’ Oyster BBQ in your 2006 “Grilling With Beer” (& to Jay for the nice photos & write-up)! In 2011, it’ll be on Easter Sunday – if you’re in town, come on down (you too, Jay)!
