Chocolate Pecan Pie
Today is the day that my daughter’s boyfriend finally reached Ashland, Oregon from Copenhagen, Denmark. He left Copenhagen on Sunday morning at 5AM… which was 8PM Saturday our time. His first flight took him to Newark, New Jersey. Not very exciting as far as destinations go, but Kristian is a brave soul and decided to take the train into Manhattan for the day (he had an 8 hour layover!) He made it to Times Square, the Empire State Building, and Central Park. He also walked along Broadway and saw Madison Square Garden. Imagine doing all that on your first day in New York!
Kristian’s flight from Newark to Portland, Oregon was at 8PM… and with the time changes, he arrived in Portland at about 11PM last evening. We’d arranged for him to spend the night in a hotel near the airport. His flight to Medford wasn’t until this evening at 5:30PM and so he took time today to explore downtown Portland. He visited Powell’s Bookstore, walked along the waterfront, and visited a few of Portland’s finest breweries.
Finally, Kristian boarded his flight to Medford at 5:30 PM this evening. And at just about 6:30 we met him at the airport. It is lovely that he has come to see our little part of the world… and we are very happy to host him. Tonight, I gave Kristian a Chocolate Pecan Pie. I want to welcome him to our town, to our home, to our lives. And I want to wish him a very happy visit to the west coast of America.

Pie a Day Give Away 
Awwww!! That’s so nice, I am sure he ate it all 🙂 Hope you all enjoy his visit 🙂
Pilar,
He did eat a lot of it… but shared a bit with us too. We are enjoying his visit… but I know Alex is thrilled to have him here. I’m thinking there may be a vegan pie in your future….
