Our friend Cindy flew out for a few days to escape the cold Minnesota weather and, more importantly, to learn how to make homemade pasta. We had a lot of fun. Mike and Cindy took a day to go for a hike at Wilder Ranch State Park just north of Santa Cruz. In addition to making pasta, we had lots of good local eats: fresh fish tacos, crab sandwiches along the ocean, Vietnamese soup, and falafal. Soren stuck to veggies. But we gave him avacados for the first time. The verdict is still out. Soren loved the attention from Cindy and can't wait to see her again!
