DOUCEUR/ M&T

Happy Birthday, Monica! Here are some pretty flowers for you!

Today, Monica’s mom Karen and I celebrated Monica’s birthday by going to the scrumptious French restaurant Douceur de France for breakfast. Their 3-egg omelet was perfect for us to share, and the fruit salad was truly a treat. Karen took some bakery goods from there to Monica, who ordered them when she heard we were going. Great bakery! Karen’s in the middle of a doctoral program, so getting any free time with her is a real treat! I think we made a pretty good stab at solving most of the world’s problems. I’ll look forward to our jaunt to Knoxville at the end of the month, Karen!

This afternoon, Karen and her husband Hans are taking off to meet Monica in Asheville for the weekend, then they will take her and go to the beach for a week for a nice Spring Break rest! Have a wonderful time, you three!

Muss and Turner…Finally!

It’s a tradition with the Masseys and us to go to Muss and Turner as often as possible. They have lots of farm to table food, and that’s very important to all of us. So, this evening, we met the Masseys at Muss and Turner for our reunion there. Their grass fed beef hamburgers were the favorite pick for all of us. Jennifer and I had ours on a Greek salad…splendid! The guys chose the hamburgers on a bun, and Fred ordered the honorary basket of French fries. What a great time with great friends and great food! Thanks, Jennifer and Fred.

Vi amo tutti!
