3rd Anniversary

This is how David and I celebrated three wonderful years of marriage:

First, we went to Uvalde to antique at one of my favorite shops




Then, we came back home and started dinner!
The menu:
Rib eye steaks (marinated in wine, tomatoes, and onions for 6 hours),
grilled and served with a creamy scallion and Gorgonzola sauce.
It was accompanied by Yukon gold whipped potatoes and a grilled asparagus salad 
with fire roasted tomatoes and feta cheese. 

The appetizer:
Asiago cheese on french bread with tomatoes and chives
(we were took hungry to take a picture before taking a bite)

Gorgonzola sauce:
Asparagus salad:
The finshed steak and potatoes:
  We set the table with a linens and toasting flutes from our wedding.



The dinner was a complete success and nicer than anything we could have found in this one-horse town. Not to mention, David and I love cooking elegant meals and pairing flavors. 

And for dessert:
A cheesecake, with dark chocolate glaze and peanut butter mousse. 

It was the perfect dinner after a relaxing day with my wonderful husband.

In the morning I made him a gourmet breakfast:
 Raspberry sour-dough waffles, peppered bacon, with a side of strawberries.
