“The days are coming now…
when harvest will follow directly after plowing,
the treading of grapes soon after sowing,
when the mountains will run with new wine
and the hills all flow with it.”
– Amos 9:13-14
The new Mexico: international, clean flavors, like Mexican sashimi (see Wandering Traveler)
As mid-October hits, I am returning to favorite countries – Italy, Austria and Switzerland – exploring new regions with my husband and parents. It is such a gift to have this time and share it with family.
