Don't eat until you're full, eat until you are tired.

....my list of Lean Cuisines consumed this week, may deter some folks from ever coming back.

Roost



Last Saturday, was a good day. We did a "revealing" of the sex of our baby, via cupcake ceremony...its a boy for those that don't know. Here is the blog:

After that, my friend, John, and I cooked and served a 6 course Louisiana themed dinner to introduce a little venture we are working on, called Roost. The idea, is to bring great restaurant quality food and service in to the home. I was super pleased with how everything came out, and think it was a great first run for us.

Here was the menu...

1.) Gumbo w/chicken and sausage
2.) Mixed Greens Salad w/fresh strawberries, havarti cheese & Balsamic Glaze
3.) Crawfish Pie
4.) New Orleans Style BBQ Shrimp w/French bread
5.) Grilled Snapper w/white wine sauce, dried chilies & rosemary
6.) Bread Pudding w/bourbon sauce

If you missed out on this one, no worries, you will get a chance. We hope to do several more of these dinners over the next few months. A great night of friends, music and food...doesn't get any better than that.
