So the funny thing is a lot of my posts may be about food instead of art. I guess they’ve gone hand and hand for centuries.

It’s 11pm and we’re working late, no surprise. We often add entertainment to the late night work. I just caught Chris listening to Mark Bittman on TED. Now that’s just great. Seriously.
When I met Chris he thought potatoes and black beans made a meal. Now he follows Bittman. (16 years later; so evolution does take time.)

It began with brewing. He loved to brew and drink beer. Still loves the drinking it part. Duh. We moved to Wyoming from Portland, OR. The keg-aerator didn’t make the move. Built a house. Had kids. Not so much brewing. But yeast is still fascinating. He began making some of the best bread around. Inspired because the options were few.

Years later he applied this same fascination to pizza. He kept notebooks and has tried at least 100 dough variations. He bought a digital scale and weighs all he cooks. Wow. And after testing every canned tomato he could get his hands on and filling up 3, (three!) notebooks with tests, he truly has perfected his crust and sauce. His pizza is delicious. This from a man of beans and potatoes. He follows Bittman.

Hmmm, now that I look at this photo, maybe this post is about art.

Took down these and more from the rafters. Where are all the occupants? Have they left the valley because they can’t find jobs, did they think I foreclosed on them? Or did the cats act as bankers? Guess I’ll just have to paint them.

This years garlic take: extraordinary! Harvest the good, discard the weeds, relish the bounty.

Ok, even thou I’m a designer, web savvy, etc, Man! it takes a lot of work to get a new site up. So for all of those of you who tackle blogs daily or manage your own site, pat yourself on the back. For those of you who want to and don’t have that push, you’re probably doing all right.

Now that I have a blog, I shall make an attempt to make it worthwhile. It may be a soup recipe, or the gorgeous, glossy flank of the moose in the yard, or the exquisite light outside at the moment, but I’ll try not to ramble on. On that note…

Mountain biking shot of the week. Fall mountain biking in the Tetons doesn’t get any better. and who doesn’t need to get out there and exert themselves to clear their heads?
