Obamalove

This sorely neglected blog needs some work, but today is Inauguration Day, so I thought I'd make a small effort. We celebrated here by watching it live and then eating a great meal of guacamole, artichoke dip, clam chowder, pear-goat cheese and pine nut salad, banana cream pie and cupcakes. I was tickled to see that my alma mater was serving the following menu in the dining rooms tonight!

John F. Kennedy's New England "Clam Chowda;"
Obama Hawaiian Burgers;
The Bush Family Zuni Stew;
Jimmy Carter's Homemade Spicy Sweet Potato Wedges;
George H.W. Bush's Favorite Fresh Broccoli;
Bill Clinton's Avocado & Tomatoes with Tropical Fruit Salsa;
Malia & Sasha Obama's Peach Cobbler with Vanilla Ice Cream
Ronald Reagan's Jelly Beans

Bring on the new era. I'm ready.
