Sometimes I get bummed out, yeah I know I’m Mr. Sunshine and Unicorns, “How on earth can HE get depressed”. Despite that It does happen though, usually I have things I think of to try and make Myself feel better about whats going on and, right now it’s food, however it’s more than just food on My mind, it’s the place it came from a very close to My heart memory.
A few years back I visited My favorite Aunt and Uncle when they lived in Newport Oregon, their house was small but it was perfect, 2 blocks down is the beach and You could see the ocean from the front lawn, it was almost bliss, but what happened next made it my most relaxing day I’ve ever had.
Across the bridge from Newport, just a few miles down from the Rogue Brewery, is a nice little fishing warf, We stopped by and picked up some fresh Tuna off a fisherman’s boat, it was beautiful, clean, fresh, everything I’d ever hoped real tuna would be like and not that crap from the can, On the way back we picked up some Fresh Beer from the Rogue brewery, set up the charcoal bbq, and wrapped that tuna with wasabi and bacon, and grilled… and grilled… and drank… the stores felt endless, the moment lasted forever, we ate fish and drank beer until the sun went down.
Perfect…
Now, Food doesn’t have to be elaborate to be special, in fact it just needs to have a soft spot in your heart.
