For those of you, Dear Readers who know me, know that am a foodie wannabe and if I truly had the funds to travel and enjoy the gastronomic delights of this planet I would be gone taking my Lobster on a food tour of such delicacies that she would likely go hungry. But, I don't have those funds so like other wishful diners I have turned to watching Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown. We all know that tragically he took his own life in Paris this spring. Recently all seasons of his show have been released on Netflix. This morning I decided to watch the Quebec episode - Season 1 Episode 5 (2013). The foods were insane and over the too - you really want to watch it. But listen for Anthony's comment when he talks about the cooks using a 4 burner electric range to turn out epicurean dishes at L 'Affaire est Ketchup. "At no point in my cooking career could I have worked with one of these without murdering everyone in the vicinity before hanging myself from the nearest beam."

I am happy to say that I saw the return of the Y2K Spitfire fighter to the Valley. It had been a long term restoration project that started here and then shifted east to complete the rebuild. I had written on this blog several years ago about a gentleman who I referred to as Grandpa. He had been a mechanic on Spitfires during WWII. Sadly, Grandpa passed away a year or so back and never got the chance to see this fantastic kite
