Sheila T., an activist for the preservation of the natural habitat and BSK’s valuable ally in political and environmental battles when HG/BSK lived in Jefferson County, Colorado, was visiting Santa Fe with a friend. BSK invited the two women for brunch. The menu was egg-and-cheese casserole (recipe from BSK’s Aunt Shirley); toast and local apricot jam (made by neighbor Merry C,); apple cider and lots of coffee. Delicious. HG ate non-dairy Forager yogurt and maple syrup with morning vitamins and medications. Cheese casserole (many bits of ham and greens) is tough going for HG. The old guy’s throat was drastically narrowed by cancer surgery decades ago. Swallowing can be a problem as food can be stuck with resultant coughing. Sheila brough some tasty doughnuts (HG can swallow those) which will be saved for breakfast. HG admired Sheila’s array of great silver and turquoise southwestern jewelry ( a pendant, pins, bracelets and rings). Much was vintage and all were beautiful.
