Well, I just took a photo of my stir-fry leftovers in the wok, but I can't find my cable to upload the photos. So no food pornography from me today. (But later, yes.)
But on the subject of the family reunion, here's the plan. On December 14, I am flying down to San Diego to meet Nanette, who will be there for a work conference, and the next day, we're going to drive to Ensenada and Rosarito Beach in Baja California to look at some beach houses.
Rosarito Beach is an hour and a half south of San Diego, and Ensanada about two hours. From preliminary research it seems that Rosarito Beach is like Cabo or Cancun, very touristy. Ensanada is too, but there's a real Mexican city there too.
I figure we'll need a place (or two) that can accomodate 15-20 people. We're not going to sign on any dotted lines, but our hope is to figure out if this is feasible. I'll take photos, and by then I'll have found the cable for the camera.
(And I think kitchen photos qualify for this blog too...so those are coming soon.)
P.S. At work, we've all been encouraged to join Facebook, so don't be surprised if you get an invitation to be my friend.
And Pat, looks like you know how to nap as well as eat.

The Mexican beach sounds good to me and you already know the key criterion for the house: it has to have a kitchen and enough cooking utensils to create our legendary meals. I'll bring the freshly sharpened knives, of course.
As for Facebook, I understand why your work wants you to join. I signed up for a MySpace account (I have no friends) just to see what's involved, and this blog has some work benefits as well. But I'd check with my kids before venturing into "their" Facebook domain.
When I was working on the house in Warren Woods, the key criteria were accessability for maryann, the kitchen and a pool. If there is no accessable beach then the pool must be accessable. Maryann really wanted a pool - or was that everyone?
Accessibility is very important. Mary Anne needs a ground floor bedroom and bath. The pool acts as a central gathering place for everyone. (Everyone that’s not in the kitchen eating or cooking.)
