Down To Earth

Day 1 Paul: Off to the races

And we already have one fallen soldier ladies and gentlemen! The Spovegan is out! Phew. Who’s next? I’m betting on Remi Schmolson. In the spirit of subtly continuing to fan the flames of my blogger war with my nemesis, the mispronunciation of his last name is a personal goal that if enough people start doing it, I have no doubt it will drive him crazy. Let the games begin.

Brief recap, items from Huckleberry’s, Rocket Market, and Fresh Abundance.

Breakfast: Scrambled eggs from Rocky Ridge with pork Italian sausage from Cascade Creek Farm, apple cider from Kootenai Valley Juice. Too much. Slower bike ride than usual to work.

Lunch: Salad. Two bumble bars. Water. (Busy day, still full from late breakfast.)

Dinner: Olsen Farms Potatoes, Birkshire Pork from Rocky Ridge, salad, and Lone Canary Syrah (which got the Spokavore seal of approval).

Also, today be sure to stop by the Main Market Co-op at 1pm to watch Mayor Mary Verner’s ribbon cutting ceremony. And check in tomorrow for an update on my search for cheese and other ingredients as there’s more time for comprehensive grocery shopping in the evening.

Until that happens, I present Schmolson in a moment of glory after the jump…
