I must shamefully admit that that wouldn't sweeten the deal for me at all. 

Me neither. Not a fan of either.

Still a bit alcohol fogged I guess.

The very disappointing lounge food was followed by very disappointing flight food. The only choice worth having was the chicken - not available - all taken. So they brought me a chicken wrap from the purchasable menu - I unwrapped it long enough to taste a bite and ask them to bin it. 

 

The nuts and cheese was the only saving grace.

  @Kerry Beal  check out my good friends at booth 6389.  Their product is Super Food Bites.  Tell them Jackie sent you.  They are fun, smart and good people.    Oh darn. I see you've left

Jackie - too late! I'm home now. I'll find them at the summer show if they are attending.

 Although I normally see Kerry only once a week,  I still do not like it when she travels even for a few days. But I always love it when she comes back!!!

 

 

 It’s déjà vu all over again!   OK well it feels like Christmas all over again.  

 

 Earlier in the thread I explained how I did some virtual shopping in San Francisco while I was making my dinner in Oakville. Some of these things I chose right off the shelf then. Some of these things were a complete surprise.

The coloured strips are velcro ties.

 

The blue tubs are not really blue that is something to do with the lighting.  They are rectangular stainless steel containers with plastic lids. This Is the post that put me into a mood to envy these!   I waited a long time to get them!   Unfortunately the link no longer works in that post.   There is something very similar on Amazon.com that includes the small wire rack.   I had them on my wish list for the longest time but they were about $30 for three of them.

 

 The tray is just that — a tray. I was hoping that it was a baking tray but it warns against using it in the oven. It will be a useful prep tray.

 

 Triangular thing is a rice mould for making onigiri. You can fill it with rice, freeze it and then nuke when you are ready to use it.

Met up with @alanamoana and we wandered off to see the Feve production facility. We were a little early so we stopped at an interesting pottery producer that is adjacent to the Tartine facility (which I forgot to take pics of). This picture is for @patris to admire the glaze!

 

 

Heath ceramics? Love their stuff!
