Still Life With Baklava and Coffee
While I was out yesterday a friend and I had baklava and coffee at Essencia Bakery which is downtown, in the Yakima Gulag. You have to time your arrival carefully as the Great and Powerful of our gulag like to meet there for their morning coffee...
Every so often they have baklava and they don't fool around with it! :)
I was sad to notice my friend Daniel de Siga's art gallery closed.
He did a marvelous series of paintings called 'Alien Invasion' where tortillas and sometimes jalapenos and chilies were the legs of the strange flying saucers. He'll be missed, I hope all he's done is move. He doesn't deserve to fail. He's a nice man and a good artist.
