RepasCG: The Aftermath... August 28

Add caption
 As with remarkable travels, great meals must end in order to begin preparations for the next one. Very large thanks to those who took part, embracing the communal table with shared stories, laughter, and good spirit. The deep fog of Mill Valley's morning gave way to warm, sun filled blue skies for the afternoon meal, a suitable way to show off the effort and love put into the garden location by our host, friend George. Add to this that the food was pretty decent, allowed for smiles to come easy as Katie and I sat sipping a last glass of a soft red Burgundy from Pierre Morey's Monthelie holdings, which we'd used to pair with the pot au feu.
 Now, we set our sites towards a return to France with guests set soon to arrive for the Fall Sessions there. We'll try before leaving to get the word out on the next repas, wavering between rabbit or "little" birds. Good meals, may they always just keep coming.
