Foodie fast track

Have you ever heard of the revolutions being made with mobile phones? Before even learning to read and write, populations in third world developing nations have fast tracked to owning mobile phones (http://tinyurl.com/7vyfxwq). How do you charge keep a smartphone charged in a village without electricity?  If you're wondering why we're talking about developing countries and cellphones; it's a great analogy to Katie's most recent food adventure!  Katie hasn't had many of the basic foods, like yams or leeks, but she took the fast track to the foodie favorites and tried:
Steak tartare

fried oysters

brussels sprouts

oysters in the raw!

Oui oui, it's foie gras

Katie wasn't the only one trying new things.  Her trusty supporters also tried beef tartare for the first time.  mmmmmm!  Thank you Walrus and Carpenter restaurant!




In other news, salty chips make her mouth hurt.  Being a foodie is hard work!
