Salt, that life may always have flavor.

And wine, that joy and prosperity may reign forever.

Enter the Martini Conradt castle.”

We interrupt this movie scene to offer congratulations to Kate on the move to her first home. We look forward to many new kitchen adventures, for wherever she has roamed, there’s been no place where the hand-made baked goods have been quite as fresh, the wine quite as fine, the dinner guests quite as enchanting, or  the freezer quite as  full of butter.
