The end of our summer break has gotten the husband down, so I rub it in with an education-themed joke, but then make amends with my national day, leading to a debate about what’s “winter food” and what’s not. I’m spared the humiliation of one of his Travel Quizzes as he instead reveals the answer and explains the cryptic clues from his final ELC mini-pod (#27) of the summer. We then discuss what’s been making it so hard for me to keep up on my blog reading: our recent travel-themed party and fundraiser benefitting Cambodia’s Landmine Relief Fund. Finally, we reveal two new travel plans that are on the horizon for us in the coming year, both of which are international for the first time since the pandemic started. Nous sommes très excités!

Winter food? We call it food in Maine and eat it year round. A good chowder is just as good in July as it is in January.

Does it stay relatively chilly up there in summer? That could account for it. 😉

It used to, though the last decade has warmed up considerably.

Nice podcast! I enjoyed your voices and stories. I also like your ideas for the fundraising party. Being an introvert myself, I’m of two minds about parties. I have a love/hate relationship with them. Most of them I hate. But I do like the trivia quiz idea, so I’ll chew on that for awhile then discard it as a generally bad idea for myself. It’s kind of like what I do when I bring home a doggy bag full of left over restaurant food, or buy too much lettuce at the grocery store. I save it for a week or so, and THEN throw it out.

Thank you so much! A doggy bag of restaurant food? I’m love those and I hate it when I occasionally leave it on the table at the restaurant. So sad!

Well, I got the Cape part right and I was on the right continent, so I give myself a 50% on the ELC. Glad to get some clarification on Hafun as well.
Also, I’m with you. Chili is for fall and winter. Baked potatoes are a year round food.

I can never get behind salads in winter.

I’m behind on my blog reading, too. Some times of year I can’t be arsed, while other times of year I’m hung-ho. As for winter food, there is a time and place for it… like in the winter!

I was six days behind, but I just got caught up… until tomorrow.
