So glad you could drop by for a visit. Yes, I have tried that recipe, and it actually turned out amazing! The raw lemon slices add a very bright refreshing punch, something you wouldn't expect to be good but it really really is. I will be sure to try that kale salad too. In the winter here, kale is a constant theme at the Greenmarket. Did you know that Google searches for "kale" have increased 6-fold in the last 10 years? Hi Kate!

That easy lemon kale pasta looks quite delicious but, oddly, I mistrust the amazing photos. Have you tried it? (surely you have) In return I offer you a raw, rubbed kale salad? You tear up the kale and rub it in olive oil until the bruised leaves turn dark. Then add some balsamic vinegar, a little coarse salt, finely chopped apples or pears, dried cranberries and toasted nuts. See, your website refreshed our relationship already.

As we just discussed IN PERSON (yes, I do prefer the real-time interactions when the opportunity is a few feet away): Let your child (thesis) carve out its' path and live the life s/he needs to live, and support that. If it makes more sense to nurture the social aspect than the food, so be it. The side effect of getting people more interested in food, is not a bad one either :) Depending on how you design it, the side effect could make quite an impact on our relationship to food as well! I also see some similarities between our bike project and your cooking. Just like I believe that people can bike much further than they think they can, you can make people like Clint discover their cooking skills — they can make things they never thought they could with ingredients and tools they didn't know what was for!
