On Yesterday’s episode of Avec Eric, Chef Eric Ripert visited The Inn at Little Washington in Washington, Virginia (skip to after the first commercial break).  In the video Chef Patrick O’Connell introduces Eric to Faira the Cow, who I met May 29, 2010.  It’s a good episode.  Watch it.

Reason: I know I can do better than yesterday and I’ve learned from my mistakes. The run will take place in about 45 minutes at Stankowski field. My cousin Brian is quickly becoming my hero. Losing weight, drinking less, rising to challenges, and being a great father...
