Everyone needs to pause now and then, if only to taste the strawberries. Jody and Roxanne are in Arizona, attending a colloquy of culinary muses, amid a tight schedule of avocado body wraps and açai-quinoa facial exfoliations. With luck they’ll manage to squeeze in a field trip to Saguaro National Park or the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. I’m catching up on work. We’ll be back July 3rd with a little something to add to your Independence Day grill fest that’s sure to put a smile on everyone’s face. In the meantime, treat yourself to some strawberries. Enjoy.

For most of June I’ve been subsisting almost entirely on strawberries and cherries, so I say YES to the taking a break/red fruit correlation. Have a great break (and superfood spa experience)!
I’m not there, but I’m sure they will. :-) Ken
Looking forward to it… thanks!
Thank you. Ken
I wish them a blessed trip!!!!!
Oh, the burden of being a celebrity chef… :-) Ken
:). What about the photographer??? I did enjoy a most delicious strawberry last night
Enjoy your break, look forward to your independence celebration, Tracey
Thank you, Tracey. Maybe I’ll even be able to turn my attention back to ciguatera. Ken
I was just thinking about you two today!! Cheers and looking forward to the 3rd!
That makes both of us. We’ll be heading down to the Cape for the long weekend. I am so ready to jump in the ocean! Ken
That trip sounds heavenly. Might we get to see some of the photos from Jody’s trip? Hope so. Best Torie
Sorry, Torie. I’m not on the trip. I’m home working–okay, I took a bike ride today and walked around with my camera for an hour this evening. Here’s a startling fact about their trip: at 2:00 pm today it was 116 degrees F. in Phoenix; in Tucson, where they’re staying, it’s a relatively chilly 109. Ken
Enjoy your break and the berries. Have a fantastic 4th of July, too!
Thanks, John. You too. Ken
