FILL UP ON LENTILS
A 450-gallon pot of lentil chili — that’s one of the things going on down on the Palouse at the National Lentil Festival (Aug. 16-17) on the weekend before WSU’s fall semester begins. And all that chili is free on the first night of the festival. The Lions Club’s lentil pancakes, served on Saturday morning, are just a warmup for the main culinary event, the Lentil Cook-Off. If you thought lentils only go in soup, and not brownies, ice cream and cake, then head down to the Palouse this summer and expand your culinary mind.
ENJOY A SPECIAL PANCAKE BREAKFAST (c)
If lentil pancakes don’t get you excited, how about huckleberry ones at the Wallace Huckleberry Festival (Aug. 16-17)? The breakfast is served from 7 am until 11. So even if you take your time on the morning’s 5K through the streets of historic Wallace, you should make it back in time for a fresh stack. Then spend the rest of the day listening to bands and sampling huckleberry treats. Take a home a pint or two of the fresh, dark berries picked from the surrounding mountains. Interested vendors should contact Alice Price at (208) 556-1037. Interested berry-eaters can find more information at wallace-id.com.
BE A PIG
Summer’s almost gone. Did you make it to Greenbluff? Or, did you make it, but talked yourself out of getting a sack of pumpkin donuts and have now been craving them for the past three weeks? Or perhaps some beer-pong-related injuries prevented you from getting your huckleberry harvest and pancake breakfast on. Never fear. Pig Out in the Park — the 34th annual eat-until-you-can-eat-no-more festival in Riverfront Park — has got you covered from Aug. 28-Sept. 2. There will be huckleberry confections, fruit and berry kabobs, ice cream and pumpkin donuts direct from Greenbluff. And that’s only a sampling of the 225 menu items that will be available from 10 am to 10 pm (not to mention all the live bands playing). Pace yourself, but not too much. It’s your last chance of the year for summer grub.
