A Resounding "Good!"
Mike painting the beam gold; we decided that looked better than white, amazing how it matches the bare wood stars. The ceiling is basically to hold up extra insulation, but love that it's fun to look at as well, and goes well with the yellow cement floor.
And now the Capon quote, from his preface to the second and third editions, where he's explaining why he thinks his unique blend of theology and cookery has proved palatable to so many:
Because, in fact, it was God who invented dirt, onions and turnip greens; God who invented human beings, with their strange compulsion to cook their food; God who, at the end of each day of creation, pronounced a resounding "Good!" over his own concoctions. And it is God's unrelenting love of all the stuff of this world that keeps it in being at every moment. So, if we are fascinated, even intoxicated, by matter, it is no surprise: we are made in the image of the Ultimate Materialist.
