Anniversary Banquet
We ended up stepping out for a nice little dinner at a place called Mona’s, about a mile’s walk from the house. We shared a bottle of bubbly (not the Veuve Clicquot cited on the ice bucket, but a nice Argyle Brut. We started with some interesting savory salads. Mine was a roasted beet and blood orange salad laced with goat cheese and pistachios. I could have been quite happy to get up and walk away after that, but we’d already ordered entrees, and I was a prisoner of my king salmon rampant on a potato pancake, so pity me.
Thank you all for your good wishes. We’re grateful for the time we’ve had, but we ain’t nearly done yet!
