Day 2
Henry’s truck rolled in at 1:30am. Stacy, Tina and I went to Safeway to buy
supplies because all the food stuff is in Jason Kung’s truck and he is not due
to arrive until late tonight somehow. It
was cheaper to buy frozen and canned than the fresh produce. Plus the fresh produce wasn’t very
fresh. So I had to create menu on the
spot and decided to make sandwiches and roasted potato with minestrone
soup. 
Dinner menu: leftovers with casserole with peach cherry
strawberry blueberry cobbler. For dinner
we sat outside in the meadow with candles, it was a lovely evening.
Contrary to what people think, I don’t actually love to
cook. I love the zone of focus and
concentration in cooking. I love the
inspiration that arises and expressed through cooking.
Loc and Billie arrived at 8:30pm right as dinner
began. This retreat really feels like a
reunion of spirits and hearts here each year.
It feels complete like a circle when people show up.
Jason Kung and James arrived at 10:30pm and we unloaded
the supplies. The guys seemed puzzled
over what all the welcome was about, in truth it was joy over the arrival of
food and not having to go shop for another day of meals tomorrow.
My ankle hurt so much today I had to sit in front of the
stove and cook.
