small talk

Leslie just e-mailed me some pictures from last weekends funness. It was an ideal autumn day in Duluth. Sunny, a mild breeze, and a good trail to hike along a rushing river. Lunch made the day even better....Have I ever mentioned my love for Danish blue cheese? Combine this with walnuts, a brown butter maple sauce, figs, and baguette. Its pretty much heaven on a plate. I live at the Scenic Cafe when this is on the menu (for a mere 2 months).

My other new addiction? Netflix! I know, I know. Your wondering why, just today, I'm excited for something every other person has already been using the last 2 years. Ben and I finally took the plunge after our favorite movie rental store went out a biz (And yes-I realize the irony and reasoning behind this). We really wanted to support the small guy as long as we could, but now that they are gone we signed up last night and spent 3 hours of our evening watching Dexter (for free yo). Of course I feel a little guilty I am indulging in the very thing that probably made our local movie store close, but they didn't even have the movie BIG the last time I went there! All they started carrying was new releases. I'm so excited to have all these foreign and independent movies at my fingertips! Have an recommendations?
