Day 7: Food Focused



DAY SEVEN is going to be hard to write about because it's currently day eleven.  Daniel and I went to Home Kitchen Cafe in Rockport for breakfast.  Daniel's a bit of a health nut, so my Lobster Benedict and Blueberry Pancake contrasted with his Garden omelet  as much as poplar contrasts with white oak.  We stopped by Dunkin' Donuts, my plan to balance the scales a bit, to pick up a snack for the workshop.  

A very Maine breakfast
By the time Daniel and I returned the rest of the gang had arrived.  Sybil had returned from Mount Battie, and we all worked until late in the night practicing our dovetails, fixing errors on our drafts, or hand-planing the stock for our benches.

A nice surprise came around 6.30 when Marie, who had gone home to take a nap, returned with dinner for all of us.  She made an awesome dish with the veggies and orzo she had planned on cooking for the Thursday night pot luck. Thanks Marie.
