I just got back from a lovely trip to Mendocino where we stayed in the garden suite of an Airbnb. The host had a lovely Asian pear tree so heavy with fruit that the branches started to break. She was kind enough to let me take home a giant tote bag full of pears to play with. Here's an Asian-inspired gazpacho that's perfect for summer and also uses the raw cannabis cube from my last post.
