For Your Reading Enjoyment...
I have been exceedingly busy recently, which you probably wouldn't guess from the long-winded posts, but you have to understand that long-winded posts tend to happen when I need a break from lengthy stints at writing PR materials.
When I am up to my ears in honing taglines, I turn to the blog and rant, pretty much without editing.
However, there are times when I am too busy even to do this. I have a restaurant review due today as well as a rough draft of a marketing piece for a client. I also owe Amalia a trip to the park and some reading time.
So, I offer you this guide to San Fermin in Pamplona as something to read until I can come back and amuse you with more recipes and rants.
Posted by erik at July 7, 2004 10:05 AM | TrackBackThanks Erik for this wonderful blog. AND for the bull-by-bull reports/traffic reports [I live in the Bay Area] and of course all the information you provide on the Festas...as they happen.
My friends and I will be enjoying the bullfights in Thorton in October. We hope to meet you!

Posted by: Lynn Almeida Mcgann at July 16, 2004 7:39 PMErik, do you happen to know if calamata olives (just the ordinary kind one buys in the supermarket) are cooked in the process of being prepared for sale? One of my sons is planting some pits and I wonder what's likely to happen. The seeds I have seen from split pits don't look cooked to me, so perhaps they will germinate sometime. I've also discovered that olive trees are hardy where we live, and I'd like to experiment with having one and trying to prepare the olives. Have you any information on either subject? An email reply is fine.
