I've spent an awful lot of time gigging recently... working with companies who do big corporate gigs. It's great fun. This past week, for instance, I spent a few days in Vegas. No bentos for that because... it was Vegas. Doing shows on the road means a 'per diem', which means that they gave me money for eating out and such. Just one of the many perks of travel... I spent two days working at a much closer convention center. I took lunch the first day... And again, was the weird one for having a healthy, tasty meal instead of a sandwich. I did liberate a couple of cookies from the craft services table. Because... cookies.
I have a salad of asparagus and white beans with a balsamic glaze. It was incredibly tasty. The purple potatoes came from my parents' garden. I happened to be standing there while my dad was digging up the red potatoes, and when he would come across a purple potato that was out of place, he'd toss it to me. I forgot about them until I got home and found I had a pocket full of purple potatoes...
I also have the last of the farmer's market stuff for the year... a selection of baby tomatoes (the orange ones are my favorite) and a purple carrot. They are accompanied by grapes and gouda.
