I spent Christmas and New Year’s this past holiday season deep in the Grand Canyon, rafting down the Colorado River and spending the best month of my life. You may think this is a strange entry on The Three Spoons, but I bet you never would have expected tales of great cuisine to come from a multi-week rafting expedition. Come to think of it, it’s not a very far cry from celebrating my love of eating outside in public spaces as the best way to build a rapport with your neighbors. In this case, it was a LOT of that, and a LOT of rapport with our very close neighbors, and I sure as hell miss our kitchen duties, campfire dinners, riverside lunches, and breakfasts huddled around the embers of last night’s fire.
Could she be any happier eating that lunch on a box?
Pretty flash kitchen.
Appetizers, hell yeah.
High class dessert, fo’ sho.
AND apéritifs – no doing things halfway!
Incomparable lunches
And no better dinner “table” imaginable.
Yow! I sure miss that. And you, too!
Come south soon and lets go boatn!
Man that was some good chow…and ambiance!
Sure miss the good times with my Canyon comrades. Even hard to clean pots in cold water were OK with the happy crew I worked with.
Aw man that just brought a tear to my eye…. miss y’all!
Any food can be good when it comes with cold beer!
