After our performance at the Mallow Run Winery on St. Patrick's Day we went to the Irish Lion in Bloomington! For the uninitiated, the Irish Lion is a bastion of Irish culture in Bloomington. They have a beautiful bar, an incredible selection of spirits, and wonderfully prepared Irish foods. It doesn't get better than a serving of Blarney Puff Balls (cheesy deep fried mashed potato balls...WOAH), and a glass of Boddington's.
One of the joys of staying in Indiana is that there's a chance we'll get to visit Jordana's parents. They live in a small town called Paoli, and have their own organic vegetable farm. Staying with them is especially a treat due to the incredibly culinary prowess of Mrs. Greenberg. Every dinner there features seasonal produce, handmade pasta, and fresh cow's milk! Your morning coffee has never tasted this good, let me tell you.
And here is one of our cute furry friends- Yoda. When Jordana found him he was a wee runt, suffering from FIV (the feline version of HIV), and leukemia. With love and nurturing he blossomed into a healthy and fluffy mouse hunting king. Let's put it this way- he's good looking and he knows it.
He is on my lap right now, listening to me read all about him. He approves.
