Day 12 - Best New Food.
There aren't many foods I won't eat a second time. Notice I said a second time, because I will try anything once. Just ask Brent about the tripe he ordered while in Florence, Italy.
This year for the first time I had the pleasure of trying marrow. My father-in-law sent Brent and I to dinner at the acclaimed Tom Colicchio restaurant, Craft (a must dine restaurant). The bone marrow was delightful!
Marrow while sludgy and grey in appearance, is also incredibly rich and fatty. It arrived at the table, a six inch long piece, split in half and sprinkled with sea salt. There is something carnal, perhaps barbaric about digging marrow from the bone, and yet, refined by the fact that I was digging it out with a demitasse spoon. The sea salt provided the right balance for the silky smooth texture of the marrow. Needless to say, I found it to be bone sucking good!
Day 13 - Best Change. What's the best change you've made to the place you live?
- New towels from Restoration Hardware. All I can say is, go buy some.
- Finally (after I won't mention how long) got the basement organized.
- Planted 6 tea rose bushes and I just adore them.
I'm already looking forward to reporting this time next year as we have wood floors, granite counter tops and new appliances in the works!
Day 14 - Rush. When did you get your best rush of the year?
When Georgia Tech clinched the ACC Championship! Go Jackets!
