Potato Chips. Also known as just plain 'chips' or 'crisps' in other parts of the world. Virtually a side dish to any meal, but can easily stand on it's own as a snack. Originating in Saratoga Springs, New York...this snack accounts for over thirty-five percent of the global savory snack market. And yet, with all the culinary treats prepared in 3D, no one has ever attempted to make them.
Until now.
She sliced (thinly). She fried (deeply in evoo). She peppered and salted (cracked and from the sea)....even made a magic fondu with truffle oil, bacon and blue cheese.
The chips were delicious on their own. And for someone (me) who is not fond of cream sauces, fondu included....it wasn't so bad after all. Then again, everything is better with bacon.

I've been having trouble...trouble finding the right words to describe this wedding day. I keep going back to the photos, hoping fuel some type of poetic magic, but I come up empty. I've come to a conclusion that it is hard to find words when.....
this is the view walking down the aisle;
and this is what everyone has been waiting for;
and this is "thank you mommy";
and this is "I love you daddy";
and this is "I do";
and this is a barefoot, beach cocktail hour;
and this just makes me laugh;
and this is the esperanza;
and these are the spirits...be it shaken, stirred, on the rocks, with a twist of lime or just shot;
and these are the proud parents from that place I call home and their children;
and these are just some of the guests;
and these are the beat fighters;
and this is the bride and groom fighting their own beats;
and this...well, this is Danielle and Paul.
Oh...and this is a little motion picture with one hundred and eighty of my favorite snapshots from this day.
Even though we spent about 80% of our time in Cabo at the pool, we did venture off the compound...it was a rarity, but it was well worth the dangerous cab rides at high speeds. There were delicious dinners, a little dancing, learning of some magic tricks, and there was even some musical talent among the group.
