Last weekend we visited Eli in Boston and helped him move furniture into his and Matt Reese's new apartment. Now his bed and desk and dresser are set up in his room. We had a great time visiting. We got a tour of Brandeis and dinner in a Mexican restaurant on Sunday, and on Labor Day a trip on the T to Harpoon Brewery with a tour and tasting, and a late lunch at a sports bar on the harbor with outdoor seating along the boardwalk. We also got to walk around downtown for awhile, drop in on final days at Borders, and see a beautiful park where the Boston "Massacre" took place. The flautas and enchiladas at the Mexican place were so, so good. At the Harpoon Brewery we sampled over 8 varieties, including their most famous IPA, the Octoberfest, the Raspberry, and the Dark. We bought 2 growlers to bring back to the apartment.
On Tuesday we drove back to Conesus, stopping in Berne on the way, and getting a puffball from my parents. That night I made puffball parmesan and spaghetti. Later in the week Bart fried some puffball with spices and we put it on our hamburgers. Yum! Then he tossed the left over uncooked puffball in our woods in hopes it'll reproduce for us. I also diced some puffball and fried it in omelet this morning with ham, onion, and "frying cheese." That cheese doesn't melt when heated, and tasted great in the omelet.
Home with Bart, Allen and Irene now. Today is Autumn in the Village at Livonia. Tonight Bart and I are going for a moonlight kayak ride with some of our friends. I made more Caramel Chocolate Bars, and substituted dried blueberries for the raspberry jam.
