Susie continues to plunge ahead with making desserts for Gracie's. In fact, her name was in the paper Wednesday, 23 January, along with Chef Joe Hafner. They will be teaching a tart workshop in February and there was a small blurb about it in the Providence Journal -- Susie listed as "Pastry Chef" of Gracie's. That woman continues to amaze and astound me.
Yesterday, Wednesday, after she left Gracie's Susie and I met up at Pastiche, a pastry cafe located on Spruce street, just behind Atwell's avenue on Federal Hill. If you ever get to this small corner of Rhode Island, Pastiche is a place to come for a delicious cup of coffee and a heavenly bit of dessert. (In fact they are open until 11 pm virtually every night for that express purpose.) Service is smart, the food is wonderful, made fresh right on the premises and handsomely prepared.
As for me I'm still waiting to hear back about the web communication editor position. In the meantime I've been asked to do some freelance food photography, so I had to take the plunge and buy a new camera setup -- as you may recall my Nikon DSLR system was lifted from me somewhere along the line in our move from Paris last spring.And of course we continue to downsize our space through the wonders of cyberspace as defined by eBay and Amazon -- and occasionally Craigslist. That Craig, what a guy!
Wish you were here!
Steve
