Paso Robles finally has its third place. 🍷

New on Cuisineist: Club 7970, the luxury social club that just opened in a modern barn on Vineyard Drive — Soho House polish meets supper club warmth, with rotating chefs, Hot Stove cooking classes, a piano bar, afternoon tea, an art gallery, and a curated wine list pouring local, national and international wines.

We've covered Paso for a decade — DAOU, the Allegretto, J Dusi at harvest — and this feels like the region growing into itself. Full story at the link in bio.

Art lesson from my studio 🎨🌵 Art by Elaine Harris 

Mixing greens for desert plants

After 10+ years teaching art, this is one I return to again and again: desert green is never just one green.

Look closely in "The Bird and the Bighorn Sheep" — bright leafy greens behind the bighorn, a pale silvery shrub in the center, and deeper greens in shadow, all against warm orange rock. That contrast makes the greens sing.

My simple mix: start with blue + yellow, add more yellow for sunlit leaves, cool it with a little blue or grey for sage and shadow, and mute it with a speck of its opposite, red-orange.

Try it on your next walk — count how many different greens you can actually see.
