Kudos to all of you for the thought-provoking and insightful answers to the contest question: “In this era of cutting back, and making do with less, what have you learned most?”
Unfortunately, there can only be one winner for the dinner for two to the new Tavern at Lark Creek in Larkspur. The dinner certificate, valued at up to $75, is good for up to a year.
So after sifting through all the responses, my pick for the prize is:
Judith, who wrote, “What I’ve learned: That premium cable sucks the life out of life!
The remembrance of simpler things. Having scaled back our cable service, I’ve remembered we actually have a patio, and it can be used to read, garden, just hang out in.
That conversation leads to a deepening of a relationship — communication lines have been re-opened.
That there actually is enough time in a day to do everything — exercise, or cook a real meal. Technology can be a time-saver, but also rob you of time to get on with life if you let it.”
Congratulations, Judith! To claim your prize, please send me an email (you can use the “Contact Food Gal” link on the right rail), with the subject heading, “Tavern at Lark Creek Winner,” along with your full name and mailing address. I’ll forward the information on to the restaurant’s publicist.
For those of you who didn’t win this time around, don’t despair. There will be other Food Gal contests to look forward to in the future, with more great prizes.
