Just got back from visiting bro, sis in law and nephews x 2 in California. Great to see them, i love them and miss them dearly. We hung and ate our way through Cali.
Went to the San Rafael Farmers Market on Saturday morning. A wide array of fruits, veggies, breads, cheeses, meats, fishes, flowers and other natural products were all super impressive. But what made this place were the available HOT and Prepared foods. Incredible waffles, thai food, rotisserie chickens and porchetta, grilled oysters, mediteranean food, artisinal pizzas and much much more. You don't have to be a cook or a foodie to appreciate this greenmarket. It is approachable and delicious no matter your level of food knowledge or environmental awareness. Our greenmarket strikes me as somewhat exclusive to the masses because it is not approachable in the same way, and i find it unfortunate. I know the local restaurants may oppose the presence of competitors of this type in the area, but perhaps they should get an opportunity to participate? Just my two cents.
Been listening to a band named "Vampire Weekend", the album is Contra.
It is very very good. Mixture of many genres, kind of like Paul Simon goes Indy with a beat. Highly recommend checking it out.
Can't believe we are less than 6 weeks from Opening Day!!! There is hope as a Met fan if we can keep our pitchers healthy. Hope is good!!! Then there is Fantasy Baseball, which is the greatest invention since the Frozen Drink machine.
Watched a special on Discovery the other day which was UNREAL. "Air Jaws" about the sharks off of South Africa that go airborne while hunting seals. You need to DVR this thing, it is absurd.
And rewatched Jaws the other night. It may be the most perfect film every made. If you haven't seen it lately you need to rewatch this film, it is Spielberg at his best.
Enjoy the local weather (if you aren't here)
