** It's FRIDAY again!

and i am sooo ready for it! been a tough week for me and that is all i will say about it. those that know me, know why. i may need a few drinks...

wanted to give a special "THANK U" shout out to "meggy"!! she treated me to an awesome dinner last night at The Bicycle in fed hill. for those that have never been, you are truly missing out! we have been there 3 times now and i am always impressed! the last time was almost a year and a half ago...it's a small place located in a row home so be sure to make a reservation.

we shared a great bottle of wine...a viognier from california (incognito) and it was really good. not too sweet nor dry. we had no problem finishing the bottle and yes, i got the hiccups for a good 10 minutes to boot! we also are really big fans of the tuna tar tar avocado appetizer!! it is amazing. it comes plated with micro greens surrounded in a sauce with little nuts and minced garlic and drizzled in a spicy chili sauce. i told meggy that i could just have eaten a plate of that and been happy!

i had the sauteed crab cakes and she ordered the tbone. i will take her word for it when she said it was really good. mine was awesome! all crab, no shells nor filler either. and what meal isn't complete without dessert?! she got the strawberry tart with blueberries, boysenberries and a side of banana ice cream. pretty good, but all of you know i am a choco-holic! i got the peanut butter cup. it came on a plate with caramel sauce and banana chips and the peanut butter cup was topped with meringue and a dark chocolate wand!! i am drooling just thinking about it again...

anyway, it is a nice day here and only supposed to be 82-83 this weekend!! i will be turning off the AC later and opening windows. i will also watch the Olympics too. i enjoy the gymnastics, swimming, track and field and some cycling.
