I did a show in Silverton a couple weeks ago. My audience in Silverton is growing and it's always great spending time with them. I thought I'd like to spend a little time in community with my listeners so I invited 10 selected guests to meet me for dinner before the show.
I make a pretty good Tomato soup; maybe I'll share it with you someday. Years ago when I was shooting my very first music video, the director's mom made us this recipe and I loved it so much, I asked her to show me how. I'm pretty sure more people have tried the soup at my hands than have witnessed that video for Without Love.
The soup takes a bit of preparation, so although dinner was served at 5, I had to start cooking at 3 to be ready in time. Oak street church has a fabulous kitchen so that really helped. In a less-equipped or less functional space, it would have taken even longer.
I'm ready for whatever. I've got all my stuff, all the necessary spices, all the necesary tools.
These are NOT the tomatoes I served to my dinner guests.
These are the tomatoes that were waiting for me on my kitchen counter when I returned home from a wonderful dinner and concert with my friends in Silverton.
In my careful attention to not forget any of the supplies, I had brought with me absolutely everything I would need, except for the tomatoes.
Thankfully, I remembered on the way and stopped at Roth's in West Salem to grab ten pounds of vine-ripened...
Love you, Beautiful.
Don't forget the main thing, Strender.
Keep the main thing, the main thing
