Cookbook arrives - 7 October 2021

Thursday, 7 October 2021.

A quiet day, mostly chores and relaxed "reading" (includes YouTube and death-scrolling, I am afraid).

The cookbook arrived at Obec Brewery.  To be precise, two pallets of cookbooks arrived.  This is The International Table - Recipies from the Seattle Sister Cities, with an introduction by Chef Kristi Brown of That Brown Girl and Communication Seattle.  This book has been under development for about two years - a COVID-19 project, if you will.  Susan has bee working it through the authorship and publication process wihth her partners on behalf of the Seattle Sister Cities Association.  It is out just in time for a holiday gift.  I can personally attest to having tested many of the recipies.  We grabbed a growler of Granat on the way out.

I mention the Cookbook because we went to the Obec Brewery to collect about three dozen books on behalf of ourselves and for other members of the Seattle-Nantes Sister City Association.  

Then we went to the SeattleNantes1980 geocache for some renew and replace action. The previous waterproof box proved not so waterproof when it collected an inch of water in the recent rainy days (an inch of water inside a waterproof box is no bueno).

Finally, I made reservations in Port Townsend for my kayak-building course.  I shall be at the Water Street Hotel.  I am building a Cheasapeake Light Craft Shearwater Sport kayak - seen here. This is scheduled for the week of 24 Oct - 31 Oct 2021.
