Porcelain Dolls

These PNB danseuses look like porcelain dolls that are about to fall over and break into pieces:

Breakfast at Volunteer Park Café

(You can click on individual photos to enlarge):

Ham Strata - Volunteer Park Cafe, Seattle, WA

This delightful creation is a strata (a cousin of quiche) filled with mushrooms and ham. I think it had some sweet cream/milk added to the egg mixture, adding just enough flavor and depth to make it unique, but not to overpower the senses (or the other flavors).

It was a very hot day (80+ degrees Fahrenheit), and the clouds rushed in late in the evening, adding some much needed color to the sunset.

Wakeboarding Venice

I’ve been in Piazza San Marco when it was flooded. Those damn tourists stand on the elevated walkways and take pictures and always get in your way. Just accidentally push them off into the square. It’ll be an experience they never forget!

Recent happenings in Piazza San Marco:

Breakfast

My ‘ma was able to procure some wild Gypsy Mushrooms. They were delightfully aromatic when mixed with sauteed onions over my morning eggs.
