Interesting to see an older master plan project that we completed used as a movie set for a few weeks.

Tests of time.

Receiving an assortment of the world's finest chocolates from Jeff Abella and Chelsea Abella of MOKA Origins reminds me of being in those countries, especially with them.

A tapestry of boldness and nuance of flavors that has me returning again and again.
Chocolate and Coffee for a good cause...
Brilliant!!♥️✌😎

Thank you everyone at MOKA Origins!🌞

Those happy moments when you find your public presentation given 20 years ago at the PBS studios in Buffalo.

The largest project we ever pitched, which brought me back to LA then Buffalo, here on an old DVD.

Half of a lifetime later, we are looking forward to going through it again.

1969
The news photographer had a bright flash on his large format camera.
I remember the reporter asking mom how things were going on her own as a sole proprietor in the profession.

I heard her reply.."Very well."

She had also been finishing her M'Arch at that time.

Now I ask again 55 years later..
I stlll hear.

'Very Well'
This time the voice is my own.

Outside of Kathmandu, Nepal

People ask me:
'Of the places you have been to and/or lived in, where is your favorite place?'

I usually say..
When I catch up to the first yatra (which is posted here), I may be able to answer that.'

But for now..here is where I will stay in memory. That experience is still the game changer. We made some big decisions there.
