About a month ago I went on a retreat/conference to Cape Cod with a group of colleagues. We are a part of a group that gathers from all across the country to meet for a week twice a year. But some of these folks I have know for almost a decade.
There were two highlights of this trip besides seeing my friends that are so fun to be around and so important to me. The first was lobster. Yum! My dad's side of the family is from just a bit south of the cape and so as kids we would travel out there twice a year. I remember it as a week filled with all the seafood we could eat. And then we would bring back cooler full of live lobsters as our carry-ons, so we could have fresh seafood at home too. So I love lobster. I think its part nostalgia and part that I really love the carnal process of working for your food. I think that's why I like to cook, why I like ribs and why I love crustaceans.
And the second was standing on the roof of the historic Old South Church. The third picture is a view of downtown Boston from on top of the roof. Very cool!
