DINNER 333: Thursday, November 30, 2006

Wendy and I went down to Owensboro Kentucky so she could participate in the 30th annual Madrigal Dinner hosted at her undergrad, Kentucky Wesleyan College. She was particularly excited that “Doc” (whose real name I never learned!) was coming back to conduct the assembled chorus. We drove down on Thursday so […]

DINNER 334: Friday, December 1, 2006

Tonight was the first night (of two nights) of the Madrigal Dinner at Kentucky Wesleyan College. This evening is the performance that I attended, and it was very nice. A brisk night in Owensboro Kentucky was a lovely contrast to the warm, inviting room (well, gymnasium) that had been set […]

DINNER 335: Saturday, December 2, 2006

Tonight was the second (and last) night of the Madrigal Dinner at Kentucky Wesleyan College. Wendy & I joined a few other alums for dinner at FAMOUS DELI in Owensboro. We had a starter of fried mozzarella with marinara sauce (it was excellent), then I had their very-good Chicken Marsala […]

DINNER 336: Sunday, December 3, 2006

We left the hotel at 9:00am (their time) to travel back from Kentucky. In the evening, we attended the fourth annual craft party at Dave & Robin’s house, attended by Dave, Robin, Cheryl, Danny, Holly, Wendy, and Drew. We made candle cozies, little beaded Christmas trees, and beady candy canes. It […]

Reading: ONLY REVOLUTIONS

Currently reading ONLY REVOLUTIONS by Mark Z. Danielewski, the author of the very-weird and much-enjoyed House of Leaves. This book is more challenging than House of Leaves and I am not immediately enjoying it as much. However, I will stick with it. If you’re interested in an unusual story told […]

DINNER 340: Thursday, December 7, 2006

I threw together some pasta, tuna, olives, garlic, and other items tonight to make a peasant meal. It was good, though I made too much pasta which diluted the taste of everything else. Once I’d ‘eaten down’ the pasta, the flavor profile balanced and it was really tasty. A small helping […]

DINNER 341: Friday, December 8, 2006

Wendy & I had some errands tonight, so it was a quick dinner at Steak-n-Shake. I had a Mushroom & Swiss Burger (not very good, honestly), some fries and cottage cheese. Share: Click to print (Opens in new window) Print Click to email a link to a friend (Opens in […]

DINNER 343: Sunday, December 10, 2006

With errands behind us, Wendy & I went to see the 4:00 production of THE TRIAL OF EBENEZER SCROOGE at Falcon Theater. They did a good job, and Donnie, who played Scrooge, did an exceptional job. It was an entertaining show. Since we were nearby, Wendy suggested we stop at […]

DINNER 344: Monday, December 11, 2006

We joined our friends Bob & Sharon for a comfortable meal at Outback Steakhouse, their pick. We really like Bob & Sharon. After our meal — I had the chopped blue cheese salad, steamed broccoli, and a 7-ounce filet — Wendy commented that they’re really easy people to talk with. […]

DINNER 345: Tuesday, December 12, 2006

Tonight, we had some kitchen-related stuff to do — Wendy baked a few cakes in preparation for upcoming events, and we made 6 pounds of chocolate bark (in addition to the three pounds we prepared yesterday). I prepared a lovely pork tenderloin stuffed with proscuitto and rosemary and served it […]

DINNER 346: Wednesday, December 13, 2006

     After work tonight, I headed over to Pho Paris restaurant because I’ve been invited to join the planning committee for the 7 Days for SIDS events that take place every June. Being invited to join the committee is very exciting for me. I’ve worked on the event for the […]

HAPPY MOUTH — December 2006

Tonight was Ed’s night to pick and he selected the CACTUS PEAR restaurant in Clifton. I joined the gang late because of a meeting so all I had to eat was a bowl of roasted potatoes. Seemed like everyone was having a blast and I know the food there to […]

DINNER 348: Friday, December 15, 2006

After a restless night, I stayed home from work today and just laid around. By the middle of the afternoon I was feeling well enough to try some food, and it managed to progress through in the normal fashion and in nearly a normal timeframe. Emboldened by this tentative success, […]

DINNER 349: Saturday, December 16, 2006

Tonight was the annual Over The Rhine Christmas concert at the Taft Theater in downtown Cincinnati. Wendy & I attended as guests of the band with our friends Brian & Milan. The four of us met for dinner at SHANGHAI MAMA’s, a few blocks up from the theater, for an […]
