St Simon Island… GA
When we decided to meet (mother and I) in this area called the Golden Isles, GA, my thought were of small villages by the water, quaint and quiet… Comparatively we love Tybee now as we had a chance to visit St Simon Island (south) and also Spirit and I took a ride yesterday about 100 miles north of here. All are full blown cities with major traffic tie ups, 4 lane highways and the...

Finally got into the kitchen this week.

For basic cookery, all we did was peel a few vegetables and learned some cuts. However, I do wish that we could have more time in the kitchen. We keep running out of time because the Chef's lectures go way off on tangents--which then cuts into our kitchen time. But the Chef is thoughtful and wants to see us do well and will therefore provide us with attention as needed.

I have been thinking about getting us a new buddy lately… much to think about, specially being the size of the sidecar. They would have to sit...

Colonial Faire & Muster, GA

The 10th Annual Colonial Faire and Muster, reenactment day, a celebration of the founding of the Colony of Georgia at Savannah, on February 12th 1733 by James Evans Oglethorpe. Spirit and I rode there, pursuit by a fanatic reader hanging out of the window of a fast moving van… Mike Justice, “Driller” on the ADV Riders Forum… obviously a dentist… Great day…...

I unconsciously made the commitment to open this business when I created the web site. It showed up in Google and Yahoo just after it was posted by my designer. I was so excited to see it hit the top of the list when I googled 'commercial kitchen sacramento'. I started getting email and phone calls even though it said I wasn't open. This is just what I needed and I didn't even know it.

Should be easy, right? Find some restaurant that was for lease, make the improvements and then...
