quick notes

This weekend, I revived my paella tradition. It was a small gathering—just four of us. There was good rioja and vinho verde to be drunk, plenty of cheese and olives, and the paella. The dish was a New Years experiment a few years ago, and I've taken to making my own way of doing it. I dug through a plethora of recipes, found the common themes, and created a social cooking and eating experiment. It's a grand way to kill an evening with good friends.

Stay tuned for the Freddie the Frog blog. We are "caring" for Freddie this week, and part of the requirement is that we document his adventures. And mis-adventures.
