It was below zero when I went into the Cambridge Food Co-Op to get some clams and dough for tonights white clam pizza (with Ricotta, tomato sauce and arregano), I was struck by the blue frost on the Co-Op window, I asked if I could do a still life and everybody said sure, why not? I set out some grapefruit and apples and I decided to flood the photo with color, go for a Manet approach to the lunch table at the co-op, there is usually somebody sitting there with a laptop sipping coffee or having lunch. It is a gift to have a co-op, to get fresh fish, vegetables, fruit, good and healthy foods.
