Last night we headed to Bowood Farms/Cafe Osage in the CWE for Green Drinks! We drove our bicycles, despite the heat — keeping it green and all. I enjoyed touring Bowood’s garden and learning about their history, and I chatted with some lovely people. We toured their organic garden, where they grow some of the produce served at Cafe Osage (sadly, the lack of a dinner menu thwarted our eating plans — we’ll have to go back for lunch sometime).

We often skip the “drinks” aspect of Green Drinks altogether, one part frugality, one part, we just don’t drink that much. Tonight, we broke out of the mold and ordered a blueberry martini to share. Delicious, but at $9 + tip, I’m reminded why we don’t do this all the time!
I enjoyed the ride home at dusk, although the weather makes me wish that the World Naked Bike Ride (if you don’t want to see naked people, don’t follow the link) happened every night. If you’re feeling shy, you can go here, for a tamer, text only description of the St. Louis WNBR. We missed the St. Louis WNBR this past Saturday, but next year? Be there or be square 😉
