Grapes and Greens: back from the benefit
http://grapesandgreens.blogspot.com/2012/08/back-from-benefit.html

How many could I fit in the car was the question. I was on the East End of Long Island to cater a benefit for Wellness in the Schools. And my car was already stuffed with serving platters, ice buckets, cocktail napkins, everything we would need to host 200 guests playing tennis matches for a worthy charity on this magnificent summer weekend.

I prefer a little wiggle room in my endeavors, some breathing space for the unexpected, the startle of serendipity, a jumping off point towards how to proceed next. For me, actual perfection is the state of not needing any improvement, a completeness, an awareness of the beauty of the moment. Tripping through the city of light on a recent four day spree of mostly rainy days and nights needs few words. A Belle Epoque private mans...

Grapes and Greens: September 2012
http://grapesandgreens.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 5, 2012. It is hard to find things not to like about the southern coast of California, specifically the stretch between San Clemente and La Jolla. When it comes to natural beauty, this area has it all. The main attraction for my husband is the horse racing at Del Mar. And that is how we first discovered the area. Now I join him on these trips to enjoy the scenery, swimming, hiking and great dining along this magnificent 30 miles of pristine coastline. This was a welcome surprise.
