Hard at work....



While Rachel began her much anticipated first day at the "Republic," Aaron was busy cooking up a Libyan stew at the neighborhood foodie store. Rachel already foresees spending all of her hard earned money on the oh so glorious discounts that are available to her (and Aaron as well). She gets a whopping 50% off the already heavily discounted prices during her first month, and 30% thereafter (yes, we consider this information VERY important for you to know; you never know when you may want to visit and take advantage of these wondrous discounts as well. Admit it.)

Back to the busy chef......as you can see from the picture below, Aaron was all decked out in his chef's attire, feeling right at home in the well-stocked kitchen as he prepared his feast. The crowd was pleased (yes, they had been drinking wine as well which probably accounts for their happiness). Needless to say, the intimate gathering was composed mostly of locals who pride themselves as much on their localdom as their foodiness.

Oh, and by the way, between our busy day of walking the dogs, Aaron's kitchen adventures, and Rachel's training session on how to take down shop lifters, we found time to sip lattes and chai at a local coffee shop. Oh, the days of a short term retirement in our 30's :)......
