Three Appreciations

1. I’m happy Kevin Sbraga has a kick-ass restaurant within three miles of our house, which Meg and I enjoyed on our date.
2. I’m grateful my parents could watch Owen.
3. I’m happy to have discovered “the Aviator,” which might be my new favorite dinner drink.

Meg and I had an awesome date. I’m drunk, so this will just list what we ate.

Foie gras soup with rose petal relish.
Pressed pork belly with chili oil, sea lettuce and cucumber.
