OMG did we have a good time or What???

Jerry and Louise arrived on Friday afternoon after a trip on the ferry that rivaled only victory at sea.. They arrived , walked Caymus [who is a real sweet dog} and off we went to Judy and Les's.. I will let Judy post photos of that.. I think she has some.???? Or at the very least it is her story!:-):-):-):-):-)

On Saturday morning we got up and went to the cafe that I work on MTW for Breakfast.. then we toured the hedges and beach houses of the rich and famous... I must say that i don't think those rich and famous people ate or drank as well as we did this weekend.. it was a gourmet weekend for sure..:-) For dinner Friday night crab cakes with basil aioli
Lobstah with the best corn ever!!!
salad and Italian desserts {cannolis and ribbon cookies!}
Saturday lunch..
Butternut and apple soup with cider cream with a wonderful wine Please Jerry fill me in I am not sure at all about the wines..

Saturday dinner;
black mission figs and blue cheese heated til melted drizzled with a reduction of balsamic vinegar..
Lobster Ravioli with a bisque sauce and lobster pieces {OMG to die for!!}
Cioppino { fish stew red sauce}
onion and tomato focaccia
The best wines EVER!!!! and we ended that with pumpkin streusal pie with whipped cream and of course
Dows tawny Port with cigars

even got out the homemade grappa and Jerry sampled the box wine.. lol

I am sure there was more but I am so stuffed from the weekend I can just about think...

Judy, it's NICE to see your husband :-)

Freddie, you and George look great! I LOVE all the paintings on the wall.
I'm jealous of the MM coming up and SO wish I could be there. You're gonna have another wonderful gathering indeed!

George sucked some jet fuel out of one the jets at the airport and told us it was Grapa. We had lit cigars in the same room, how dumb!

Very cool, looks like a fun group. Well except for the old long harried hippi freak. Caymus is one beautiful puppy, shame about his owner.
