After work on Friday night, I went upstairs to find a bouquet of flowers waiting for me on the dining room table. The next morning chocolate bars were waiting for me on my desk. The best surprise was waiting for my in my e-mail. Husband, along with Rikka and Rainah sponsored a dog through the Best Friends Network, a favorite charity of mine. The dog’s name is Rose and she is a Katrina survivor.
Yesterday’s celebration began with brunch at Harry Bisset’s New Orleans Cafe. I had the Eggs Barrone and Husband had Eggs Henry Bisset, which is poached eggs on steak with Bernaise sauce. These dished were complimented with Mimosas and Stoli Bloddy Marys, respectively.
We returned home after picking up our wine club, plus some, at Shiraz, and had a pleasant afternoon sipping wine and listening to music. Then is was time to start dinner. We made short-ribs braised in Malbec, and served over homemade egg noodles. The recipe was based on John Besh’s and turned our really well (Note to self: next time cut the noodles smaller)
