The number of people who visited ArtOmatic on opening night! Much fun was had.
Chocolantara review August 13, 2008
Points to L’Auberge de la Fontaine (hotel) in Montreal. They left us great chocolates from Chocolatantara, a shop right here in the neighborhood. Um, yum
Stripy Swirl: crème filling, not like your grocery store junk chocolate. I admit, that in my enthusiasm, I did not savor this as it deserved (thanks for the recent tasting exercise Kim Rush Lynch!)
2 crunch looking things on top: perhaps chestnut and a port wine filling? Tres complex, great progression.

Food Review: Crepes at the Market, Riverdale Park Farmers Market May 30, 2008
I didn’t know it was possible to get intoxicated from a crepe. But it is.
I found “Crepes at the Market” selling their wares at Riverdale Park on Thursday afternoon (www.rpfarmersmarket.org). An amazing menu with both sweet (dessert-y) and savory (meal-type) selections. With much difficulty, I selected the #3, comprised of egg, tomato, basil, and gruyere cheese. If I did anything different, I would sit down and give the work of art my full attention. Even walking and shopping and heading back to the car, it created a “things are well with the world” moment.
“Crepes at the Market” I thank you. I will be back: there’s quite a bit of menu I need to work through.
*Disclaimer: I am an in-advance faithful supporter of the upcoming Greenbelt Farmer’s Market. Until it opens on June 8, it’s nice that Jim Coleman and friends have done such a great job building the Riverdale Park Market. And I will be coming back for more crepes.

Avalon Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvingnon 2003 December 11, 2007
I’m sure that the giver (D’s former contract) meant it with the best of intentions a few Chirstmases ago. And maybe there’s something to storing Cabernet Sauvignon that I don’t know besides dark and (realtively) cool, but this one turned to pure vinegar. Should have saved it for vinegar use!
