Impressive. What's the event?

We are last of 9 stops on the Forage Trail - an afternoon long roving picnic.
This event sells 1000 tickets & is sold old in under an hour the day the tickets go on sale each year. They get a pack at the start of the event at mid morning with a wine glass, water bottle, and tickets for each stall along the way. Each stop has a food & a drink.

So the stop before us, in a clearing about 5 minutes walk away from us had a fruit producer handing out dessert - an apple & cherry crumble, a coffee cart handing out espresso & a local winery handing out cherry liqueur.

Our stop had us with the cheese, a local winery with a 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon & a musician singing along to guitar.

The punters, who travel from every where for part or all of this week long festival. Some of them come every year and make it an annual holiday.

We prepped an extra 100 plates on the fly in the last hour. As the last stop sometimes people are too full to eat more.

Would love to do that. I use to know Orange really well. Did my senior years of high school there, then my in hospital nurses training and post grad from 83-89 at the old Bloomfield Hospital. Some pretty wild years living in NQ1 ( Nursing Quarters 1) before moving interstate.

It snowed here this morning! It didn't stick because the ground was too warm (38F/4C) but it's always interesting to see how the weather evolves in Ohio, isn't it? It's going to be 55F/ 13C here tomorrow. I have often heard that if you don't like the weather in Ohio, wait 10 minutes because it's likely to change!

Making Great Northern bean soup in the crockpot with ham, red-skin potatoes, onion, carrots, and lots of black pepper. I will also be baking some bread this afternoon. Yes, it is great soup weather for sure. We finished off a pot of homemade chicken soup earlier in the week.

I made an omelet for breakfast with ham, sauteed mushrooms, onion, orange bell pepper, and slivered raw asparagus, using Gouda, white cheddar, and American cheese. Really, really good!

Last night we had seared scallops and Chilean seabass filet seasoned with lemon pepper and broiled just until the sections slid apart. I served it over a fettucine in a white wine and lemon cream sauce, sauteed mushrooms, bell pepper, red onion, diced tomato, and asparagus seasoned with Cajun seasoning. Really, really delicious.

Lately I haven't been feeling like taking pictures, I don't know why. Too hungry to bother maybe?

They say 5 minutes i Texas. :laugh:

It is 86F/30C here right now, so no soup for me!

I have a rack of ribs to smoke tomorrow, so just grazing tonight.

We have one, but I "muted" her (aka turned her OFF!). Tried to sell her off on Facebook, but NO takers :o_o:
She was listening to us even when we weren't talking to her and saying things made you go, HMMM really? I wasn't talking to you.
I remember reading somewhere, sometime back that all of our 'devices' are "listening" and those companies use that information... spooky :mad:
Oops, back on topic ...

Albuquerque-Style Green Chile Chicken Enchiladas.jpg

Hatch Chile and Chicken Enchiladas, individually sized, I don't like it as a casserole style.
