Since Valentine's Day...

We had a very nice dinner at Penny and Joe's with Joe and Denise for Post-Valentine's Day...baked salmon and halibut, eggplant rollatini, salad, appetizers, cupcake dessert and good company!

Chrysalis and Ryan visited with us for a few nights. On Saturday, Chrysalis and I observed her good friend Joseph in the Jessup Competition Moot Court. It was wonderful! I loved the banter amongst the judges and the responses and propositions from the "agents" (law school students). Later that night, Michael and I went to Dee's and had our usual-we shared a salad, this time it was tri-color, I had the Olive Delight pizza with kalamata olives and Michael had the rosemary turkey buger with carmelized onions. We shared a bottle of Chianti and also discovered that Dee's has paired up with the Wine Room of Forest Hills to prepare their new wine selections. Very Nice!!

Sunday, pleasantly unexpected, we were invited to Leslie's for Sunday dinner, which, of course, included a BIG pot of gravy with sausage, meatballs and pork. Way Yummy!! Great food and great friends!!

Monday night, as Michael wanted a certain kind of beer to bring to Leslie's ski house this coming weekend, we went to New Hyde Park to pick up Innis & Gunn-Scottish beer, then we went over to Eddie's for pizza. We ran into a friend of Michael's from his childhood, Erika and her family. We sat with them and ate. It was really nice to see them again.

Last night I made Michael wedge salad (iceberg, tomatoes, bacon and blue cheese dressing) along with chicken marsala (diet version-no butter, only olive oil, splash of marsala wine and mushrooms). Tonight's plan (ha) is turkey burgers au poivre and roasted fennel. We'll see...
