Anniversary

Thanks to the generosity of some church members, we were treated to dinner a The Tavern tonight. It was a 45 minute drive to get there, but it was worth it!

Christy had the stuffed Filet Mignon, and I tried the rack of lamb. The lamb had a good flavor, but I think it was overpowered by the sauce (it included mint and lavender…an interesting flavor, to say the least). I also had a glass of Greg Norman Cabernet-Merlot with my dinner. Of course, we wound up sharing everything, including the wine. I thought Christy wouldn’t like it because it wasn’t fruity enough. She liked it, though. Her filet was fan-tab-u-lous! It left me thinking I should have gotten a filet, too. Of course, if I did that, then I would be kicking myself for not trying the lamb.

We topped it off by sharing a piece of Boston cream poundcake and a slice of toffee cheesecake.

Yes. We were pigs. It was quite tasty, though.

Thanks to all who suggested creative ideas for our anniversary! I have them tucked away in the back of my brain and will remember those suggestions at a later date!

    John Wasem told us in class this morning about what happened at Milligan yesterday. I remember how numb we were when the car crashes happened my freshman year. It’s horrible. Just horrible.

    Hmmmm…maybe someone spoke a little too soon (yes, it’s really on Amazon – but for how long, since it’s ‘merely a placeholder’?). At least they don’t have a deadline to worry about now.

    Time for a quick aquarium update… All of the dalmatian mollies died. I think the final count was 27. The momma fish got to them before I could really do anything about it. Eventually, the two dalmatian mollies died, too. Serves them right. Must be karma or something. One of the platies died too. The…

    I remember the first time I went to a festival down in Tennessee.  Because the Fall Festival is such a huge event and one of the largest street festivals in the nation (or is it the largest??), I grew up with delusions of grandeur.  I thought all festivals were supposed to be like that.  You…
