So glad we got to meet, Skinner - thanks for being there! It's been a really great day (Jaleo was excellent)

1. Nice you met.

Jaleo is GREAT! Is near my former office; been years since I've been there.

2. How very cool for you both!

I've met him too, at a DU meetup in DC some years ago. Unfortunately, it was in a very noisy venue, so meaningful conversation was out of the question!

Still, we had fun, and I'm sure you did too.

Great photo!

5. I want to apologize for not being there

I was planning to go with Skinner but then (foolishly) rescheduled some appointments and realized I couldn't make it. I'm sorry! Hopefully it went well and I'll be able to catch you next time you're in D.C.

6. Yes, he told me you had a snafu - just was informed that they'd like me back...

not sure which topics or when, but looks like it will happen again. That is great news, since it's been such a positive experience.

We will meet some day, I am sure - thanks for chiming in on this thread!

9. You both look great!

I wish I could have been there. I need a tomato workshop (or my tomatoes wish I'd attend one), and it would have been amazing to be in such good company.
