Back in Knoxville

We settle back into the Knoxville house.  Amanda and her cleaning crew once again have the house spotless and ready for us after our Airbnb guests vacate the home.  The first few days seem filled with acquiring provisions from our favorite stores.  On Saturday we go over to Market Square and the Farmer’s market to put in a good supply of local eggs, beef and pork.  The temperature is cooler than Cuenca, with a crispness in the air.

​While we are at Market Square we decide to have a late breakfast at Cafe 4.  We have tried at least four times to dine at this restaurant and each time the wait has been too long.  This morning we are seated immediately.  William orders his carnivore breakfast of eggs, bacon, sausage and coffee.  I am not that hungry so I just order a bowl of tomato bisque soup and some tea.  The food is decent, but not amazing.  What is amazing is the difference in the cost of the meal from our experience in Cuenca, Ecuador.  In Cuenca we each would have steak and eggs (mine with a biscuit and fresh fruit) and coffee/tea and the bill with tax and an appropriate tip is $16.  Cafe 4 with all included is $39.  I remind myself that I don’t want to become one of those old people who complains about the cost of things “these days”.
