We don’t brunch, we don’t lunch, but between 3 & 4 p.m. we do DUNCH!
After our daily walk we have a very copious breakfast —will be featured in a near future post—, that sticks to the ribs until early afternoon. We also found out that the eating pattern works very well to regulate our weight without feeling deprived at all. Our evening snack is usually very light: few slices of cheese w/ apples, a little bread, maybe a bowl of miso soup… but for now voilà le Dunch today:
Dunch du Jour
Cheese Polenta (delicious NYS grown corn & US cheeses) with Shitake Mushrooms Simple Salad w/ Fennel & Roasted & Soaked Almonds
Prune Sweetened CranApple Sauce topped with Sheeps Milk Yogurt
Vegan Bars (made with fibres saved from juicing & delightfully called turdies by our son!)
These delicious little pyrenean beignets (pescajous) are for you!

Ken Filiano : Critics have called him a “creative virtuoso,” a “master of technique” . . . “a paradigm of that type of artist. . . who can play anything in any context and make it work, simply because he puts the music first and leaves peripheral considerations behind.”
Michael Bisio : “His personality, his technique, his skills are all there, but fully in the service of the music, real music then, with a depth that transcends the physical aspect of sound : it is so full of deep “human-ness”. An absolute joy to hear, … ” Stef Gijssels freejazz-stef.blogspot.com/2011/02/michael-bisio-travel-music-self.html “His Playing appears to be produced by sorcery.” Frank Rubolino Cadence Magazine

More GOOD News:
Thrilled to report that Nicole Peyrafitte’s BI-VALVE texts & paintings
will be out late spring by STOCKPORT FLATS!
Our film Basil King: MIRAGE premiered on Saturday at Anthology Film Archives. It was part of an event celebrating vibrant 77 years-old Brooklyn based painter/poet Basil King. Great snap shot above taken by poet Charles Bernstein who had to sit on the floor -sorry Charles! Though great perspective of the very attentive audience during the screening.
The afternoon —organized by “the Friends of Basil King” who are also the executive producers of our film— was filled with great panels, presentations, videos & poetry readings. You can read more about the event here.
Meanwhile our family crew would like to thank you very much for coming or providing support from afar! Do stay tuned since we have entered 14 short film festivals!

The first installment of R-R-M was performed on Sept 11 2011 at Erika’s Loft & published inEmergency INDEX 2011 – Ugly Duckling Presse 2011.
