Guest Critics: Don, Caleb and Cheryl
Don: Don is a journalist for NW Labor Press and Willamette Week. He is a direct descendant of Don Quixote. Don is a lover of words and a dance enthusiast.
Caleb: Caleb works for Metro. An environmentalist, Caleb cuts his grass with a push mower. He loves everything French, kitsch and chocolate. Caleb is very easy to shop for.
Cheryl: Cheryl is a professional photographer who works for Stewart Harvey Photography. She's a Yooper (originally from the upper peninsula of Michigan) and very proud of it! When Cheryl isn't photographing events for her friends, she enjoys reading, gardening and fine dining.
Lunch: This lunch was an impromptu gathering of old friends who had originally stopped by for a light brunch of coffee and chocolate chip banana bread. I was working over-time, trying to play hostess, care for my child and chop vegetables for a soup--all this on my birthday. Even though Jason and I had just celebrated it the night before, we slowed down, took a deep breath and said to the group, "Let's eat and blog wine!" There's nothing like a table with bowls of warm soup and long-time friends to soothe a harried soul.
