Today’s lunch is a delicious Caesar salad with shrimp. 
David and Ron are making their plans to arrive in Haystack, Maine later next month. David is teaching a beadwork class and Ron is taking the blacksmithing class from Fred Crist. Check into the fabulous Haystack at www.haystack-mtn.org.
For the students signed up for the Haystack class, get ready for a great two weeks. David is bringing along Craig Abramson as his assistant. Craig has been working with David for a number of years beading in the chair next to David’s big purple chair in the studio. They are a great team and you will be able to explore innovative techniques with wonderful support.
Also, get ready to eat some bacon.
Let me tell you a little story about Whitney. Arriving at Penland in the mountains of North Carolina a few years ago to take a course from David, she was strictly vegetarian for almost a decade, if I recall. Soon Penland transformed her into a baco-vegetarian in the lunch line. Penland and Haystack offer an environment to transform and change in ways that will astound you.
Who knew that bacon would come to symbolize change in the personal pantheon.
With a shout out to BLT’s, Whitney and all the other lovely students from years past, David and Ron look forward to seeing you again and meeting new ones.
And Whitney will be at Haystack. She’s back for more. Bacon.
