Picnic; soup

Eastside Road, August 22, 2010—
HISTORICAL SOCIETY PICNIC today at a beautiful 150-year-old stone house down in the Valley of the Moon, near Glen Ellen. We went with a couple of friends; they provided sandwiches — tuna, turkey, ham and cheese, salami — and we provided guacamole (which Lindsey has promoted to the Hundred Plates) and chocolate-chip cookies.
Cheap Pinot grigio

We ate and drank far too much for a hot midday, so tonight we were content with a bowl of broad green beans and another of clean-out-the-icebox soup: chicken broth, frozen peas, string beans, some diced boiled potato. Nice soup.
