me, renée, and ani

this morning i went to the ferry plaza farmer’s market in san francisco to see my friend and colleague ani phyo demonstrate the preperation of some recipes from her new book–ani’s raw food desserts. her spiced blueberry cobbler was off the Richter. the bonus was that i got to hang out and talk with our editor, renée sedliar.

after that i headed back to oakland to table at the annual malcolm x jazz festival put on by eastside arts alliance. was great seeing so many beautiful folks celebrating arts, culture, and the legacy of Malcolm X.
