Today was a farming day and afterwards we had lunch together as a group. It was a bit soggy on the farm this morning, but not too soggy for some weeding and raking. Again, I find it so peaceful to weed. It's like relaxing outside, but more productive. I really think the beans appreciated our efforts.
Then we had lunch together and made some veggies from the farm as well as some quinoa. Yum, Emiko put this soy sauce, brown sugar, chili flake sauce on the veggies - it was real good. During lunch we got to know each other better and also discussed some readings on soil. I usually am not super in to science or anything, but learning more about soil and how important it is to organic farming has been fascinating so far.
We ended the night by going out to dinner with Dan and Karen at a place just down the street. It was called Jungle George Grill and I had this falafel sandwich that had plantains on the top and bottom instead of bread. What a great idea. After dinner we swung by a pizza place next to the UCSB campus and grabbed a sweet 'za for dessert. We brought it back to Dan and Karen's and continued to chat for awhile before bed.
Another day of good food and good company. =)
