He continued: Its a great chance to learn from people you know or people you dont.
Ive made a lot of good friends who were friends of friends either recommendations or they came as guests.
Like, Hey, I got a friend coming in from out of town.
And theres usually room.
Theres very few times when theres not.
The rule is: Make more rice.
Make family eat last.
Pableaux had a gift for creating community.
To make more rice.
