All of a sudden...winter came visiting.
We loved seeing Central Park covered in a blanket of snow yesterday.
Last week the Senior couples in the NYNY North Mission met at the Mission Home for lunch. I placed my little camera on the fireplace mantel and this is what I got. It's not important that we got sliced off but one couple is completely missing :(
Our dear friends, the Clements gave us a personal tasting menu as a gift for valentine's day.
Since Duaine is a busy French chef at the Four Seasons he came on his day off, Feb 13th, bringing Gil to serve (she works 3 jobs, one of which is catering).
The first of 8 courses was "Wellfleet oysters w/ pickled kiwi mignonette". Hard to imagine but neither of us had ever had an oyster...down the hatch.
Following super descriptive courses of king crab, carrot bisque, cavatelli and flounder we were served our third entree of "Australian lamb, legume mille-feuille, and potato puree". Lastly we had two dessert courses. (Pictured is the lamb)
It was absolutely the nicest meal we had ever had - anywhere, ever. Magnifeek!
The best we could do was to treat them to Carnegie Deli and cheesecake. They actually split this one sandwich. We still owe them big time.
This attractive couple was married last July and Gil was baptized in November. They start our temple prep class next week! Find yourself in the temple whenever possible. And if you think it's not possible give yourself a little more credit. Your potential is limitless. We love you.
Happy Birthday to 25 year old Britni!!!

Yes, that's Gil & Duaine from our Harlem Ward. They were married last July. Very outstanding couple. Good memory Britni.
And Jami...U R rite. We R spoiled!
You sure do eat well. I've never figured out how to cook like that. If you ever want though I'll prepare some basic tacos (nothing fancy) or if you're lucky a casserole! Love you guys! Steph
