		<description><![CDATA[It took most of a year but the freezer full of wild game was worth it. That is until a frozen goose fell out onto my wife&#8217;s foot. Promptly thereafter, I had a pile of game on my kitchen counter that needed sorting. Looking it over, I was proud of my accomplishment. I had hunted, brought home meat for my family, even earned some &#8220;man points.&#8221; The wife simply shrugged and pointed at her red swollen toes. I explained that this kind of local food was the &#8220;greenest&#8221; food that we had in the house. I told her that we had sustainable, low-impact, locally-sourced, organic and free-range grub that we should hang on to. She nodded in agreement but said that I needed to find something to do with all of the game because &#8220;we don&#8217;t have room for the ice cube trays.&#8221; (I explained to her that we do not have ice cube trays. She said I was splitting hairs, and I should clean out the freezer.) Clearly I was not going to be able to keep these frozen trophies forever, so I called a few friends. It was time for a dinner party. Once I had the concept [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[(GH: Long before &#8220;locavore&#8221; was a word, Northwesterners have harvested the local bounty by hunting for it.  Here’s a link to a recent radio story produced by The Northwest News Network and broadcast on Northwest Public Radio): Every five years, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service counts how many Americans hunt. That number has fallen steadily since the 1970s, even in the rural West. Some of the decline is due to demographics; more people live in cities and they’re less likely to hunt. But while the number is going down, the hunting tradition remains strong in rural states like Idaho. Recently, Inland Northwest Correspondent Doug Nadvornick spent a day in the field with a fourth-generation Idaho hunter. Click for the full story and audio]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Back in 1942, the famous and often funny food writer M.F.K. Fisher wrote a book called How to Cook a Wolf.  She meant it metaphorically, the wolf as a symbol for the World War that was raging and the food shortages created by that conflict. How to Cook a Wolf was a book about making due during times of adversity. There were lots of recipes, if no actual dishes featuring bits of wolf. Over the intervening years, many Americans began to see the big-bad-wolf metaphor as outdated; good for story books but casting that was less than accurate in light of studies that showed the wolf as an integral part of wild land ecology and a creature with many apparently admirable qualities. Wolf advocates likely weren&#8217;t thinking of flavor as one of those qualities. Now that the State of Idaho has opened a hunting season on its wolves, there&#8217;s been some less than metaphorical talk about this new game meat.  Here&#8217;s a recent Letter to the Editor from the Idaho Statesman that includes a recipe that may be helpful to those with wolf tags and a strong stomach (I particularly appreciate the advice to check for dog collars before proceeding): You can eat the [...]]]></description>
