Omakase Christmas Eve

DECEMBER 24, 2010

Three posts in one day...
This one is for Steve and Emily...
who would have loved this dinner
and the ambiance of this beautiful restaurant...

Even though I had a lovely invitation to visit extended family of the friends I'm staying with... I find that I still can not attend large social occasions...

So... I took myself off to my favorite sushi place in Fort Collins, [Jeju Restaurant](http://www.sushijeju.com/)...

I asked for Omakase, which means in Japanese, literally, that I put myself in your hands, in your care. The head chef created a feast for me that I would like to share with you here...
I started with a warm cup of green tea...

Then miso soup...

Then a delicious salad with seared tuna...

followed by scallops wrapped in tuna...

Then a sashimi platter like I've never seen before...

after that came the nigiri with the freshest hamachi roll...
sans the scallop nigiri that I ate
before remembering to take a picture...

Imagine my surprise when desert showed itself...

tempura cheese cake dancing
around the cutest orange panda...

A feast for this night indeed!

The Retiring of a Labyrinth

By Lea Goode-Harris • 05 Aug, 2023

Labyrinths provide us with a path to practice change. Some labyrinths have withstood the passage of time for thousands of years. Others are here for just an afternoon, drawn in the sand at the edge of the ocean. Many modern labyrinths were meant to last for years, but because of unforeseen circumstances their time is shorter than intended. And they once again help us to practice letting go and giving thanks for the time they are with us. The Labyrinth of Life at the Sebastopol, California Teen Center reached such place of letting go and is at the end of one chapter and the beginning of another chapter that is yet unknown.

Making A Three Circuit Labyrinth

By Lea Goode-Harris • 05 Aug, 2023

Sometimes... a labyrinth can take years to become a physical reality. In 2018 I met with my friend Deb, to discuss her desire to have a labyrinth on the beautiful land she lives on. Despite our plans and several meetings, listening to the land and finding the right spot, the labyrinth did not come to fruition. Fast-forward five years and in the blink of an eye... it happened!
