We started the New Year off with a bang surrounded by friends, good food and libation and lot’s of laughs. And at midnight, thanks to a local neighbor association we could see fireworks from our living room window to boot. During the evening there was some rum fueled conversation about resolutions and such and I committed to do a drawing a day in 2012. Yes, I had been thinking about it because when I made the attempt 8 years ago I fell a little short. Wish me more luck this time please! Other promises were made for “a day” feats like: a poem, a blog post, a drink (think alcoholic beverage), and some that will remain open to your imagination. I am wishing us all well and am putting no pressure on myself as to the quality of the finished product, it’s more to establish better habits as I see it. Below is a photo from friend, neighbor, graphic designer and photographer Andrea of the Lentil soup I made to start the year with good luck. Photos of the daily doodles…soon come.
Lentils for good luck!
A few weekends ago I took part in a Valentini dinner which was auctioned off at a Smile Network fundraiser. The Valentini family all grew up around Valentini’s Supper Club in Chisholm, MN. Needless to say, many of them are exceptional cooks. This event is always a lot of fun and raises money for a great cause. I am always happy to be an honorary member of the family for this event! I made the gazpacho, but this great photo is from photographer Marty Berglin. The rest of the menu was really spectacular too. Basil, nasturtiums and chives all from my garden!
