House Concert Food Challenge is on!


The 2007 "best dessert spread at a house concert" challenge has officially begun. Greg and I did a house concert in Dayton, OH, and host Jeff Stands made one of the most impressive display of snacks and desserts I have seen... The cheesecake was the big hit for me, as you know that's my favorite, but he also made Black and White AngelFood Cake, Espresso Panna Cotta, Double Chocolate Pound Cake, cranberry orange bread with strawberry spread, and dark chocolate raspberry swirl cookies....
So, for the rest of you hosting house concert this year, you have your work cut out for you to win this years food award. Start cooking!


The concert was a lot of fun, Greg had only played one house concert before, and he is a natural house concert performer. You may have heard me cover Greg's song "The End of You and Me" It's a really beautiful, and quite frankly, brilliant song, and he opened with that, and had a couple people crying... Crying in a good way, it's great to see music really move people, that's what it's all about.

It's probably about time to be getting to bed, but we are staying down in the basement, which happens to be where the XBox is, so we are going to be up for ahwile playing football!
We're off to Flint, MI in the morning.
