Life's a Stitch

And more recently life’s a creative adventure with some travel thrown in.

Food and travel can be one of the best combinations.

Air Canada calling it pizza is a stretch. Coincidentally at the same time Lufthansa's caterer has announced that they will begin home delivery of airline dinners. Interesting.

On to the best meals of the trip. Seared sea scallops ($21) at New York's Mersaille, 630 W 9th.

Food as art – while Lynn learned to make sushi on the ship, I painted pictures of fruit:

I'll save the food of Quebec for another post as it's in a yummy class of its own. The irony of this post is its vicarious pleasure, as in the same week I'm recovering from the post flight cold, root canal and crown prep plus the decision to start treatment for H Pylori.
