Bits and Pieces

Busy week behind and busy week ahead…

Pieter de Hooch A Woman Peeling Apples

last week

• Monday was President’s Day and no snow to shovel. Susan McLellan Plaisted made George Washington’s Mush Cakes on Bites of Food History
• Tuesday Colonial Foodways had 2 programs at Plimoth Plantation – Take and Bake Apple Tarts in the morning; Curds to Curd Fritters (with some ashcakes) in the afternoon Apple Tart recipe here and the curd fritters here on the Pilgrim Seasonings blog
• Wednesday was a blur….but
• Thursday, meeting of the South Shore Locovores on Home Cooking – more on that later
• on Friday, I was one of many talking to Anne Bramley about pies, and Columbus was 1492, not 1592, which is what I said, but I didn’t mean…. Eat Feed podcast Pie: A Large Slice of Everything in A Crust 
• Saturday, Rhode Island Flower Show   where we saw the Fabulous Beekman Boys and Roger Swain …
  

  Me with Brent and Josh – they are truly nicer then nice – I had some gifts for Polka Spot

  Next week – Spring Training begins…not the Red Sox, the Pilgrims.

I’ve got my fingers crossed that these links will work….
