rest and renewal

it is one of those lucky times in the year when we pack our overnight bags and head to the rolling hills of sonoma county for creative companionship at the smith house. there will be good conversation and quiet spaces, scrumptious and wholesome food prepared and served by chefs of various ages under homemade aprons, a comfy down blanket and new creative goodies, outlets, sources, raw materials and delights to behold. and of course, there will be tea.
