Our friend Jonathan who is staying with us at the farm left for the afternoon while we were filming. We told him to come back by 7:30 pm for dinner. He was late. He still does not know what he is missing. I thought I would write this quick entry to let people know what to expect to eat with us and why you should never be late. Oh what happens when you are late for dinner and Emma and I are hungry and cooking.

- We will make a fun cocktail with fresh fruits and local spirits. There might be enough for you in theory, but we will divide it in two and have seconds. We figure you won't know we ever had it.

- A portion of your plate will get siphoned off and re-distributed- especially if there are lots of colorful vegetables on it.

- The side salad might get eaten and the bowl will disappear so you won't know it was there.

- We might also eat part of the dessert and leave you the smallest peach.

We can't help it. There is too much fun to be had and sometimes it is too hard to wait.
