Steve Sando and Judy at the Rancho Gordo demoMy long tour comes to an end and I took a couple of hours to just sit by the ocean and breathe.
People always ask me if I miss living in California- so much of the scenery is the same but there is no ocean. I also got my fill of food I miss, Chinese, Thai, some great Sushi and Mexican.
Perhaps tomorrow will have my bagel and smoked salmon breakfast and then I am ready to go home.
Had a blast with Steve at Rancho Gordo, was almost a "This is your life" moment as friends showed up from the hotel where I used to work and also from high school.
Thanks to all that came by. The final day was a family cooking class get together and the weather was perfect. Hosted by my friend Terry in her new Kitchen/School, the weather was lovely for dining outside and everyone loved the truffled salad and the three year old parmesan cheese with 20 year old balsamic vinegar!
my nephew ben and almost cousin austinCiao for now- arrivederci in Tuscany!
