Super fun show in one of my favorite cities. The weather was perfect, the crowd was big, and Wilco was having a great time on stage. It was good old sweaty rock n roll. Just how I like it!! We ended up late night at The Maple Leaf Bar, where the Dirty Dozen Brass Band had us sweatin' out the funk, the Abita was cold, and there was a crawfish boil outside. Where else can you have cold beer and crawfish at 4AM on the sidewalk?!

I am still holding out for the addition of Portland or Seattle. Or Vancouver BC! Maybe they can squeeze in a show between Southern Oregon and Red Rocks??? I cant make it to Southern OR on a Tuesday evening! I think it's a 4 hour drive one-way.

wah. no portland oregon.

i have never heard of jacksonville oregon!

one more funny moment: walking downstairs to find Jeff playing Wii tennis with Miles (my 4 yr old) and the other young boy (whose name escapes me).

Thank you to Sam and Sooz for again hosting a great Chicago weekend. It's always a wonderful time when you have great food, great friends, and great music. Allow me to reflect.. The food on Saturday night itself made for a memorable night. I arrived early enough to have Alison's mac and cheeze this year (yum), and when I told Miles that the big silver box was an ice cream machine, he said "for real?!" with big eyes! And Uyen's cupcakes never disappoint ....but woodgrain?! Move over Martha.

This has become a reunion of sorts for many of us who have become close friends over the past 5++ years, and it warms my heart to spend the weekend with some of the nicest people in the universe. Not to mention hilarious. It was also great to "officially meet" a couple friends and shake their warm hands after all this time.

And last but not least, Jeff and Susan are amazing generous people who are the common denominator for all of these wonderful friendships. If it wasnt for Wilco/Jeff's music, I certainly would have never crossed paths with many of these nutjobs I now call friends Thank you both for putting up with the chaos, sharing funny stories, putting up with my kids (Ruby had a blast this year), and for everything else.

Oh, and I LOVE the new Wilco record.

xxoo

Because both have been around so long that nobody remembers what it was like before these things existed, and thus they are taken for granted and fall under suspicion.

You are 100% completely right.

I think milk that is ULTRA pasteurized lasts longer. Most organic milk is ultra pasteurized.

 

I'll just stick to the hormone free pasteurized stuff until I can get my hands on some raw milk. I need to make friends with a dairy farmer though as it's illegal to sell it in Michigan.

Christy, I would highly recommend that you (AND YOUR KIDDOS) avoid raw milk. Too many infectious diseases can be transmitted from raw milk. I have taken care of children who have been infected with E coli O157H7 or Brucella from consuming raw milk or unpasteurized cheese. A few babies had kidney failure and required dialysis. I took care of one who died.

I am not sure why pasteurization seems to be frowned upon in this thread and in the cheese thread. It's extremely weird to me when scientific advances which have clearly saved thousands, probably millions of lives, get bad press. Like pasteurization and immunizations (dont get me started!!!)...

I think pastuerization, while intended as a good thing, has given producers a license to be lazy and not as diligent about other methods of germ prevention. It's also done some bad things to our immune systems. It's somewhat of a necessary evil, though.

I am curious how pasteurization has led to laziness? Also what "bad things" has pasteurization done to our immune systems? I'm not sure I understand --

man, i'd give my left leg to meet the legendary james p walsh. maybe next summer...
