It was a great meal with great company! And ElZ, the onions--once cooked--were delicious; I don't typically like red onions, but the balsamic vinegar not only made them palatable, but good (perhaps Panera could take a lesson on how to prepare red onions from Heidi and Claudia). And I'm so happy to have lunch today, too! Forgive the tardiness of my official online thank you. It was a great meal with great company!

I am finding, though, that the sensation of going to bed hungry instead of full is starting to grow on me. I'm rooting for you (and me)!

I have no farro, though, and my pantry grain/pasta shelf is already overflowing -- do you think kasha might work instead? And I'm with you all the way on Heidi -- "kind and real" is a perfect description. Her photos are swoon-worthy and a total inspiration.
