Day 1 of Project 2012: A Photojournal of the End of the World, As We Know It

We start out Year 2012 with a battle scene on my dining room table. Enter the young sixteen year old Isaac to engage in a show of strength & masculinity against fit & trim farmer Ferol White. Their bellies glutted with chili made with homegrown grass-fed Hamakua beef & tender pinto beans, corn bread, chile relleno casserole, oreo pie & chocolate truffles, - they faced each other with bravery & honor. Sure, there were grimaces, moans, and ripping muscles. There were even a few tears. And though we will not soon forget this first day of 2012, with its epic multigenerational battles, heaping plates, and bloated bellies - the important thing isn't who won this day - it only matters that good friends and good food are back on Bibingkalove's Bliss Blog. I hope not to disappoint. This is my year. You're welcome along for the ride.
