There's a New Artist in the House! Roxanne Ritzel-McDowell
Roxanne Ritzel-McDowell grew up outside of Syracuse, New York and began doing artwork as a very young girl. She attended the Rochester Institute of Technology and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in the Fine Arts, majoring in Painting. From there she moved to San Francisco, California and studied with the well known visionary painter Bill Martin. In order to help pursue her own art she founded and opened the Ritz Frame Shop & Gallery in Point Reys Station, California. The gallery was highly avant-garde and showed many upcoming as well as established artists. Roxanne had numerous one-woman shows in the gallery as well as participating in group shows throughout the West Coast area. After moving back East in 1985, Roxanne became a framer and art consultant for Corpor-Art, a division of Another Atmosphere in Newburyport. From there, a 10-year hiatus as a tennis pro and in 1995 she opened the RFR Frame Shop & Gallery in West Newbury, Massachusetts where she currently continues to focus on her own art as well as providing framing and consultation for other artists and clients. Roxanne is also a guest artist in group art exhibitions at the Leighton Gallery in Blue Hill, Maine.
Favorite Indian Dishes at Home - Wow! That Was Really Good!
We had a full house last night! Thank you to all our students! Chef Mary Reilly walked us through a delicious and easy to replicate Indian dinner. As always, she imparted hints about ingredients, food prep, storage, etc etc all of which will help to ensure our success when trying the menu at home. The menu included:
Whole Wheat Samosas
Vegetables with Cilantro Chutney
Chicken Tikka Masala
Shrimp with Whole Spices
Smoked Eggplant (Eggplant Bharta)
Spinach with Fresh Cheese (Sag Paneer)
Moong Dal
Basmati Rice
Chutneys & Relishes
Fresh Fruit
The cooking class was truly a wealth of information and the meal sumptious! New England Wine & Spirits of Newburyport paired the menu with Royal Challenge Lager, Gruner Veltliner (Winzer Krems, Austria), and Riesling (90+ Cellars, Columbia Valley, Washington State). Join us next for our canning workshop on Saturday, August 7 (1:00p.m.- 4:00p.m.) and/or for our Farmers' Market Cooking Class on Friday, August 13 (6:00-9:00p.m.). We hope to see you soon!

10th Annual Newburyport Kitchen Tour!
The Newburyport Kitchen Tour is held each year in support of the Newburyport Elementary PTO - all profits directly benefit the PTO sponsored activities such as the science fair, transportation for field trips, after school programs such as the Author Festival or the African Dance Performance. These initiatives have significant impact and serve to greatly enhance the learning process for each individual child. This year the tour was held Saturday, July 24, 11:00am until 4:00pm.
Jewett Farms & Co. was proud to serve again as a sponsor and host for the after-party for tour volunteers, home owners, and fellow sponsors. We were joined by nearly 60 Tour Volunteers, Home Owners, and Sponsors who were treated to great food by Chef Mary Reilly of The Savory Kitchen, wine selections by Joyce Hulm of Old Bridge Cellars Wine Company & by New England Wine & Spirits. The Tour was a great success and volunteers enjoyed some well deserved down time in a beautiful space with delicious refreshments! See you next year!
