Amazing 'Home' Cooked Meals

Recently I’ve grown a bit tired of the usual PF meal of rice, beans and meat and have been craving some veggies. It seems quite a few people have been feeling the same way, because Bas, Jen, Tom, Safia (sp?), Al, Maeli, Arrianne, Floor and myself cooked up a huge pasta meal the other night.

We decided to go very gourmet and had appetizers of hot garlic bread right out of the oven as the chefs worked away in the kitchen and others mingled and relaxed before dinner. The sauce included at least two of every single vegetable sold in the grocery stores. It had the usual onion, tomatoes, peppers, carrots along side with zucchini, egg plant, delicious sausage and spices. Once all the ingredients were in the pot, there was so much sauce we thought we’d be eating off it for two nights and we had already cooked up enough pasta for a small army. Clearly we under estimated ourselves and how hard we had windsurfed because it turned out we cooked up the perfect amount. I don’t know how we finished off so much food, but I think everyone went home at least 5 pounds heavier and very satisfied that night.

It’s great sitting around and having fun with so many other people from such different backgrounds, and everyone is here because windsurfing is what they love to do. I love listening to stories of people from previous years in Jeri or other prime windsurfing locations around the globe. It makes me want to travel to new locations and windsurf 365 days a year!
