what does this have to do with cooking? Everything and nothing. Bear with me please.
Do you know what? It’s the little things that matter. That’s where life is. It’s knowing that M is sleeping soundly in a lovely old Dublin hotel. It’s going for a walk with this dawg who’s been the best we’ve ever been blessed with and looking at a low fog starting to settle into the San Juans, across Hales Passage.
It’s coming back and finding both kitties at the door to greet us. It’s feeding the crew, sharing 30 seconds of love with the rotten Tortie, 5 minutes with the ol’ boy cat, and sitting down beside that 14 year old dog while he chows down.
It’s that air off the bay. It’s gathering a dozen amazing tomatoes for dinner.
It’s all that. Don’t let all the loud noise and terrible crap the news spews distract you.
Everything is connected. We are all part of it. Never, ever take that for granted. As Warren Zevon said, once he knew for sure he was dying – enjoy every sandwich. So with that said, I believe I will.
Y’all be well .
