ok, so mean mamma has to clean her house this weekend!!! i have invited a dietetic intern from vanderbilt to visit the restaurant for 2 days next week- and also invited her to stay with us. she read about me in the eleusis, the alumnae magazine of chi omega sorority- and called me up one day. she is from austin, texas, and sounds very blond on the phone. she wants to have her own restaurant one day, maybe i can talk her out of it........

i am leving shortly for work- we are catering at the ky herb society festival in frankfort, with a lovely box lunch that includes mediterrean chicken in a vegetable-stuffed pita, minted fruit, and a lavender lemon bar. i hope i have enough stuff to make 200 box lunches, but i may not have enough fruit to go round, when we run out we come home, so either way is fine with me.....
