The 4 day workshop ended Sunday, and the last participant flew away home today. The house is clean, and we're still eating the food leftover from the meals we offered. I had the last of the Banana Oat Chocolate Chip Hemp Protein Bars...
The fresh produce we provide for the workshop is beautiful all by itself, but the platters that Josie, my assistant, puts together are works of art. The oatmeal nut scones are not really very scone-like - but they are tasty, though not...
