I am so happy to have been able to record today.  I don't have time to photos or music notes yet, but I wanted to get the podcast uploaded.

Episode 38--return of the cook

I am back and finally able to find time to record again. Hopefully I will also have the newsletter finished by the weekend as well:) I had a terrific time at the Apple Farm over Labor Day weekend. Our menu was terrific:  Red Pepper, Manchego and Almond Salad; boonville Bouillabaisse; Pink Pearl Clafouti/ Fresh Garden Tomato Pasta with goat cheese/ Sopa de Poblano; Cruuy glazed duck legs with plum salsa and couscous; garden salad and cheeses; Chocolate Chinchilla/ Corn cakes with salsa fresca; Sausages in Cider; Berry Shortcake with hot cream sauce.  Yum!  I talk more about what we cooked and the class in the podcast, but I also wanted to show you some photos of the farm.  I forgot to mention that I got a fun surprise to find a bed of Indigo in the garden.  The oldest daughter is raising a few sheep (which I never did find) and is naturally dyeing the fleece so she can spin and knit during the Winter months. Sally, Don, my mil and sitting is my god mother inlaw:)   the brambles you see is the only fencing they have to use for the horses.  Chicken coop ( I wish I had a camera with me at the moment--I am typing out in the meadow and the dog just got a wild hair and chased the goats all through the meadow and into the pasture)

I took a great book with me on the trip. I haven't finished it yet, but I'm having a hard time putting it down. Highly recommend any books by this author.

There are some new threads on the Ravelry group for At the Kitchen table.  Come join a knitalong or add your recommendations to the book "What we're reading" thread.  Don't forget to join the "Spin Your Stash" group on Ravelry.  A fun 6 months of stash burning (err spinning) adventure.  I will let you know when I have the Pico Accuardi Dyeworks group set up.

Music this week (from Podsafe Network) is  Biscuits n Molasses by big George Jackson.

Lost in Space

I'm sorry that there hasn't been an update of podcast episodes the last two weeks.  I have had to take an unexpected break due to time constraints. 
I'm about to head out the door for a road trip with my mil and godmother.  I'll be posting on Facebook through out the next week.  So friend me so you can follow along.
There will be a podcast episode late next week:)  And then you'll hear the whole "what I've been up to" deal;)
