The day of the Feast

 This fotos cracks me up!

I was not going to upload it, but then

I just had to, it is so good of Natassia

posing as a hostess!

Silas is predominantly responsible for

 EVERYTHING on this table foodwise.

I made one batch of crackers and some fermented/pickled garlic.

He went over-the-top!

We didn't need dinner after this!

 Here is the keezer.

We always have to buck the trend.

Most people have a "keggerator"

We have a 'keezer'.

This is our contribution to recycling.

We are basically unable to recycle glass here,

and we used to generate plenty.

Like when I would take our glass to the "recycle" center

{they save it in a special area to mine it later}

the attendant would ask if we owned a bar!

EEeek!

{We do take the glass of others who are typically willing

to just toss it, so it wasn't ALL ours~ but mostly}

Now we just have to wash glassware.

And Mike takes a growler to places he would usually take bottles.

The party!

It was very festive.

It was extremely delicious.

It was mostly organic.

We are all grateful and feel exceedingly fortunate.
