Country girls.

I spent the weekend with my too-cool friend Lisa, and yesterday afternoon we drove across the Tappan Zee from her perch in New Jersey to pay a visit to Blue Hill at Stone Barns, home of one of the best restaurants in the country. But we weren't there to eat in the fancy-schmancy dining room - we were there to explore the farm, which is open to any and everyone, complete with a delicious café and free-range chickens.

I promise an in-depth post later, but I couldn't resist sharing the curiosity of this adorable, adventurous little one, who made friends with the flock of hens he met in the pasture. The lesson? Get to know your food, and do it young.
