Yes, I thought it looked like "Geico money" when I saw it, too.

Elin- what an event! Wish we had something like that around here. And thanks for taking the pic of the bathroom sink. I totally would have done that too. And it's gorgeous!

Happy Halloween everyone!!

Last night we saw Zombieland ... very funny and very gross, too. If you liked Shaun of the Dead I think you will also like Zombieland. We thought it highly entertaining.

Afterwards we had dinner at a local seafood place called Bristols. They were offering a fixed price 4-course menu for $30 per person. The food was great and we couldn't beat the price.

First course was potato gnocchi with mushrooms and corn bisque. It was a little too shroomy for me but Jay, quoting Hitler, said it was "exquisite."

Second course was seared tuna with fresh greens and grilled 'taters. The tuna was perfect! I've never seen tuna this good in Stinktown.

Third course was a petite fillet mignon with a big ol' king crab claw, mashed taters, and asparagoose.

Dessert was lovely vanilla bean ice cream with a raspberry jam tart.

Jay did a CA wine pairing with his meal (4 wines for $16 ... wow!) and I did a French wine pairing with mine (4 wines for $25 ... still wow!).

All in all a very satisfying and most tasty meal - we will definitely visit them again!

Elin what a fun looking dinner and the price is great. I love that barrel sink how fitting to bad wine doesn't stream out.

Sounds yummy, Brenda. I am glad you were feeling well enough to go!

It was great. But I didn't take the camera this time ... felt like I had enough to worry about with all the recent WDW stuff. But I'll tell you ... as good as it was I really wish I'd brought it. Ah well, next time.

And I am finally starting to feel better ... still hacking but not as much. I also decided to stop taking the Mucinex altogether and that seems to have helped a lot.

Brenda glad to hear your feeling better. By the way it was really nice to meet you and Jay both at the F&WF. My boys enjoyed meeting you both they kept telling me how nice the two of you were. And you know I find kids and animals have good instict. And mine were dead on with theres. What great people you guys are.

That sounds fantastic!

I had 60 full size candy bars to hand out last night and ran out by 7:30 (started at 6) Since we were childless and out of candy, Jon & I went for sushi Went to a little place just up the street, doesn't look like much from the outside (or inside to be honest) but it was really good. It was the 2nd time we tried this place and this time we only got sushi. We ordered 4 different specialty rolls to share and while we waited for them, the chef sent out not 1; but 2 different on the house appetizers! The first was a heart shape with spicy tuna and the 2nd was the coolest thing! It was a crab, salmon & tuna 'salad' served on a shell with blue fire on the plate. It looked amazing and tasted even better!

The rolls were:
a spicy tuna roll, spicier than many I've had before so Jon liked it more than I did.
Dynamite - Salmon, crab, fried and rolled in rice with masago. This was like a roll inside a roll and was to die for good!
Dragon - tempura shrimp with eel & avocado on top w/eel sauce
Osaka - spicy tuna, tempua flake, shrimp eel avocado on top. For some reason ours was served with salmon, not tuna.

We also ordered hot sake, but sent it back. It tasted and smelled like vinegar, blech That was the only downside of the evening.

The service was great, our tummies were full when we left and our total was $33!

I love sushi. That meal sounds delicious. Brenda your meal sounds great too.

We had dinner for our family after handing out candy for trick or treaters. More on that in my next post.

Halloween Goodies

Every year when my kids were growing up we had a Halloween dinner for them. Since they are both here right now, DS24 and his girlfriend too ( but thats another story), we decided to have a Halloween dinner after giving out candy to the trick or treaters.

Halloween Menu
Bat wings with blood sauce - we had originally planned on cooking the wings outside in our turkey fryer but Mother Nature refused to cooperate, giving us very windy and rainy weather. Wings came from a local restaurant. No picture , some vultures got to them too fast.

Graveyard fries- fries with cheese and bacon
http://s708.photobucket.com/albums/ww81/jeminni/?action=view&current=P1010491.jpg

Monster eyeballs and cheesefingers

Blood and guts spread with crackers - crabmeat spread

Candy fingers- circus peanuts and jelly beans

Popcorn Hands

Spider crackers

Roadkill Rabbit - no real bunnies were hurt in the making of this

Boneyard Cupcakes

Wormy Pumpkin Cake

For drinks we had soda, Yuengling beer, and Yellowtail Moscato.

After dinner we all watched the Rocky Horror Picture Show and later on Michaela and I sipped on these:
Edited for the DISboards - Slippery ( or Buttery depending on what recipe you look at ) Ni**les

Lets do the Time Warp again

Michaela's costume to hand out treats. She was a scary doll.
I was even scarier I came as myself.

Everyone had a great Halloween.

I don't know why the Graveyard Fries picture didn't work. I'll try it again :
