I am blushing like a child....
There is something to relish from this encounter. In a world that seems to be so negative,So hurtful. That two people who have never met,but seem to share a passion for good food,good friends as well as other things, come together and have fun,educate and learn. There still is hope in the world  When I flew to Chicago in May,I was so excited...and I ended up having such a incredible time.Nicko,Coleen,mezz,Momoreg,Jorden They were just names on a screen...(ok,Maybe a little more than that)But when we met and hung out it was like we were old friends. I felt that way when i turned the corner at the cooking school and saw papa sitting there,Olive oil in tow....and a warm ,welcoming smile.I feel blessed to be apart of this industry that has enabled me to meet and talk to so many wonderful people.
Peace and purity.

Having met Cape Chef myself I can also second that there is no one that I would rather have in the kitchen to coach and guide me through a session. You were very blessed Papa. The other side of that is that I have also chatted many times with Papa and I am sure it was a complete thrill for you Cape to hang out with such a great person.
I think it would be cool to post the menu, recipes, and any photos on ChefTalk if you guys are up for it.

The saga of the Cape finally came to an end!

Dear Friends:
I am practicing to see if I have finally mastered the technique of posting pictures on our Cafe. I am getting ready for when CC's pictures get developed.
This is my most favorite drawing from a book of my childhood hero Tintin (I am still a dedicated fan of Herge's works). As a child, I used to look at that picture and dream of sailing around the world in the pursuit of new discoveries.

How nice Papa,
Tintin is my very favorite!
Your picture was taken from "Le Secret de La Licorne".
Such fond memories...

I'm sitting here looking at a poster of the rocket landing on the moon as drawn by Hergé. You are never too old for Tintitn. It really should be required reading.

I LOVE Tintin. Iza have you been to le Petit Moulinsart? It used to be one of our favourite hangouts when we lived in Mtl... |

Dear Friends:
I am so excited that they are others who share my excitement about Tintin!
When I lived in Belgium I visited the Herge Museum. The exhibits were wonderful! It is never too late to feel like a kid again!
Here is a link that you might enjoy: http://www.Tintin.com

I watch The Adventures of Tintin every Saturday morning on CBC.
Thanks for the link, Papa.

Love Tintin. I knitted a Tintin sweater many years ago (for ME!)...

Pooh I am jealous. I want a Tintin sweater! If only I knew how to knit.
So what's your favourite Tintin? I always had a thing for Tintin au Tibet. I also always liked Tintin et le lotus Bleu and Les cigares du pharaon. Guess I like the exotic one.
I remember as a kid seeing Tintin et les oranges bleues and Tintin et la toison d'or. They are the only films done with actors. What great memory.

Hi Iza,
I like the ones you mentioned, plus:
L'oreille cassée (The Broken Ear)
On a marché sur la lune (Explorers on the Moon)
L'Affaire Tournesol (The Calculus Affair)
Tintin en Amérique (Tintin in America)
The two movies you mentioned are so great, in my humble opinion.
As for the sweater (sigh) I cook more than I knit at the moment. Maybe in my old age...
