So we had our date night last night and it was a lot of fun and some great food. We started out with the Cheeses of the Day as an appetizer (the apple-pear chutney was the best). Miranda had the Rotisserie Chicken but wasn't too fond of it. I had the Black Cod and was actually the guinea pig as they had just put it on the menu. It was one of the best meals that I have ever had! For dessert, Miranda had the chocolate gateaux (chocolate cake) which apparently was wonderful also and I had the Crepes Suzette and was the guinea pig again(!). I had never had Crepes Suzette except for the ones that Miranda makes so I was interested to see how her compared with the professionals. Right on target! She is a wonderful cook anyway but I guess we need to start a french bakery serving Creme Brulee and Crepes Suzette.
As you all already know, I subscribe to the budgetary theory of "If it fits on the credit card, we can afford it" (it's a theory that was recently shared with quite a few people but has recently fallen out of favor). Miranda subscribes to the theory of "No". It's a classic theory that never goes out of style. Anywho... I wanted to buy a bottle of wine but was shot down spectacularly. It was a Salon Epernay as you see below.
The price was interesting
$500. So that was that. Here was Miranda saying "No".
It was a lot of fun though. Stopped by Bartlesville on the way home and bought some more Snails and some cheap caviar so when Mom and Dad come up, Dad and I can eat some interesting food.
Patrick has ate almost 2 dozen donut holes this morning. Needless to say he likes donut holes. Funny story... the other day he walks into the bathroom and Miranda was in there combing her hair. He tells her "I got to go to the bathroom, so scram!". He is a real card. They really enjoyed staying will Shelley Doyle.
Off to Vinita soon and back to real life.

You should have bought two bottles, and gave me one!
