Every once in a while, you meet someone so genuinely decent that you immediately want to support whatever it is they’re doing. Within just a few minutes of meeting Zeus at the Secret Waffle Society on the corner of Greenwood and Bond in Downtown Bend, I knew that his dream was one worth supporting. Quick […]
Here it is! Episode #4 of The Inside Kids. The episode is a bit longer than the average podcast, but hang with us. We get into some serious topics and some pop cultural stuff, as well. Get to know us. Thanks for listening.
As Bend continues to grow, so too does its food scene. And while dinner tends to get all the attention, we think breakfast and lunch are equally worthy of celebration. Think about it: Eating breakfast for dinner is a thing. Dinner for breakfast? Not so much. That is, unless you’re eating last night’s pizza. (Always […]
We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming with this important message: It’s National Donut Day. Now, we know all these days are often marketing ploys to promote a product—in this case, deep fried dough with frosting, filling, sprinkles, and other delicious accompaniments. But we are nothing if not hungry. And on this particular day, at least […]
In our current edition of the Cocktail Compass, we have added a Beer Booklet; starting on page 19. In past issues, these guides have been more about a list of venues and happy hours.

A new sign popped up recently in the shopping center at NW Bond St. and NW Franklin Ave. next to Amanda’s Mexican Cuisine. It reads, “Thump Coffee: roastery & brew […]
Frisbees were invented by alumni from my small Vermont college. While there were famous alumni and authors from the school, the addition of frisbee to American culture was a certain point of pride for the school. There was even a statute of a giant Great Dane leaping with a frisbee in his mouth on campus […]
Oh sure, perhaps there have been some poisoned pies sent to enemies in the Middle Ages, but really, I would hazarded that 99.9% of the time a pie has been baked, it has brought joy. There are a few days left for our Pie-Off: Submit a recipe to pie@bendsource.com, and we will select three recipes […]
My goodness: Bob Marley spread his seed—and Bend continues to benefit (?). Sure, there was Ziggy Marley here this summer. Now, his (less musically talented?, but former linebacker) son is selling his coffee at the local Safeway. Rohan Marley is the Bob Marley of coffee, so to speak: Marley Coffee is what the p.r. person […]
