how to make a cob oven |
earlier today, we met this famous german (american now?) photographer, anselm spring, and he invited us to come see his way of life on the top of a mesa. i'm leaving shortly, and couldn't be more excited.
then, i was sitting at the counter chatting with eden, a farmer at the true nature sustainable living farm and he drew the above pictured directions and diagram of how to build a cob oven & in what order to most efficiently use the heat (bread, cookies, then granola.)
then eden mentioned that he was from israel and the man drinking coffee on the couch behind us spoke to him in hebrew. the man had just been on a five-day llama trip. "wow, imagine that, two israelis in a coffee shop in boulder, utah," he said.
that pretty much tells you how cool and weird this place is.
