# Culinate launches new blog, bringing guests to the table

Portland-based [Culinate](http://www.culinate.com "Culinate"), the foodie portal situated at intersection of food and life and food (it’s a five-point intersection kind of thing), has launched a new blog, [Dinner Guest](http://www.culinate.com/mix/dinner_guest "Culinate Dinner Guest blog").

The blog is designed to allow the folks at Culinate to feature content from guest bloggers who may or may not be typing with their mouths full.

> We named our new [blog](http://www.culinate.com/mix/dinner_guest) Dinner Guest, and in putting it together I’ve felt a little like a host making invitations to a dinner party. You know, wanting to invite new friends and old, interesting people of mixed ages and varied interests, someone to wear the lampshade at the end of the evening.
> 
> Or maybe it’s more like planning a menu: Something hearty, something green, something sweet, and something for the person who doesn’t eat \[fill in the blank\].

Recent contributors include [Curt Ellis](http://www.culinate.com/mix/dinner_guests?author=4350 "Curt Ellis"), co-producer and star of the documentary [*King Corn*](http://www.kingcorn.net/ "King Corn"), and [Harriet Fasenfest](http://www.culinate.com/mix/dinner_guests?author=4457 "Harriet Fasenfest") of [Preserve](http://www.portlandpreserve.com/ "Preserve").

Culinate features articles and essays that address the multitude of intersections between food and the rest of our lives. We’re interested in how people define their lives via food — should I buy organic? be a vegetarian? shun sugar? — as well as how food defines us. Culinate is a place that connects food to the wider world and brings it home.
