A day to give thanks










I don't know why i haven't been writing in my blog. I felt like i've been in this state of comatose for some time. Not felling like i want to do anything; But, some how every time i look at these pictures, life slaps me in the face and say's "there are so many beautiful things in life that you have closed your eyes too...wake up!" So, without further hesitation, i give you the thanksgiving blog.
This was such a beautiful day, nice and sunny with a cool breeze. The day started off with a half asleep call to Robin at Suzie's farms. Exaggerated to make things shorter.
R: "hello"
A:"hey, robin its Aldo, do you mind if i come and pick up some vegetables"
R: " yeah, no problem,come and see one of the employees they will help you" A:"cool ill be there in five!
(after the purchase)
R:"why don't you come down to kiki and pull some vegetables out of the ground! how could i say no!
The menu consisted of braised Swiss chard with one hour pulled butter braised carrots and roasted Turkish eggplant. Herb du Provence rubbed Brandt beef prime rib eye with roasted red onions, beautiful blanched pea snap(could of been eaten raw) olive oil salt roasted chiogga red beet salad with amazing tender mixed greens, candied pecans and herded de affinois. nothing fancy just food. Alice water's ears were ringing!

I think this is a good reason you need to write more.
