On Sunday I took a walk at the golf course and found the most fantastic piece of deer “shed.” It was lying in the meadow, completely exposed and bleached white, a four-point rack from a buck. I could scarcely believe it was just there in grass, there where no one else had seen or taken … Continue reading Universal thoughts

Three current crushes…November edition
The Manhattan at New World Bistro Bar.
