Tier2: Cooking class and dinner picnic on an island, paddling with lights

Details

Backstory:
A couple of years ago I found myself in India in the company of a serious ayurvedic practitioner, who taught me to make the ayurvedic comfort food dish - kitchary. Something that is nourishing, tasty and easy on digestion. Since then I've been making it often and many people I shared it with asked to teach me to make it.
Of course me being me I have to do it on an island!

The plan:
Let's have an easy paddle (1 mile) to my favorite island, spend about an hour making the dish, then we'll eat it, maybe take a swim, hang and head back. Dinner is the kitchary that we'll make. Of course you are welcome to bring anything else to add.
On the way back it'll be dark. So lets use lights on our vessels. I have some extras (send me a message ahead of time if you want it).

Time and place:
Meeting at the green triangle near the dock at the Cedaroak Boat ramp.
6:00pm - gettig together
6:30pm - hoping to be on the water
We should be back a bit after 9pm.
