I love DailyCandy!
I find out
about the most
random things from them
Yesterday, I read about El Cosmico
in Marfa , Texas
I have never been to Marfa
but for some reason, it's a place I've wanted to visit
Now, I have a reason!
Here's the event I want to check out -
a cooking class with Chef Lou Lambert:
SEPTEMBER 16-18: Big City Camp Cooking
Traditional chuck wagon ingredients will be prepared using "big city" culinary techniques -- all over a live outdoor camp fire. Sample Menu: Barbacoa Raviolis, Gulf Seafood Pasole Verde, Bock Braised Dutch Oven Wagyu Short Ribs, Gingered Pear Fried Pies with Honey Buttermilk Ice Cream.
You can stay in a remodeled trailer, a yurt, or a teepee. I can't decide between the yurt or the teepee. (You can even pitch your own tent, but that's too rustic for me)
I have been fascinated
with chuckwagon cooking
since I attended a bbq
in Graham, Texas last year
It inspired me
to acquire
these cookbooks
that I coveted last year
Reata Southwest Cookbook by Mike Micallef
&
Let me just add
that this fascination
is all very bizarre,
because I'm definitely not
an outdoorsy camper girl!
