Signing papers and celebrating

We signed the papers for our new house today.  Yea!

We went to a really nice restaurant called Cicada this evening to celebrate.  We were pleased to see bugs were not on the menu...unless you consider crab a bug.

Dinner started with a dirty martini for Mark and champagne for me.  Then came bread with really tasty butter with fresh chives.  I had the Dungeness crab cake with roasted asparagus and roasted potatoes, along with a cup of gumbo.  Mark had duck breast, which came came with sweet potato au gratin and asparagus with cherries.  Everything was really delicious.  We will most definitely go back.

And now we are cozied-up in the hotel room and calling it a night -- we're watching TV and the puppies are enjoying their celebratory raw hide chew bones.  All is right with the world.

  1. Yeah! I get to post the first comment! First of all, the weather here is sunny and 75 degrees. How's that for "in your face", Anne?

    Glad things have worked out. It sounded like a lot of fun to spend so much time in a studio apartment with a bunch of animals (and I'm not just talking about Mark).

    We'll be sure to check your blog often.
