North Carolina cousins!

Yay! Finally we got to spend some time with all the North Carolina cousins: Christine and David, Alex, and Julia. Our fun-filled weekend included a picnic at the beach, kite-flying, and a hike to the Denny slabs. Highlights below, and you can find all the pix on Drop Box.

Lori visit

Lori visited! It was a great, if too short, visit. We spent a day in the park, where Lori took some amazing pix of the kids.We hope to see Lori and the rest of the Compas family again in 2014.

Salty Sea Captain

Eric has recreated a drink we had the other night at Terra Plata:

1.5 oz smoky mezcal

Juice of 1/2 lime

Few dashes of celery bitters

Few shakes of Cholula hot sauce

Tecate beer

Shake everything except for the beer. Pour into a glass with ice and a lightly salted rim. Top with the Tecate.
