here's to 2008


Way too many servings of mashed potatoes and black-eyed peas, and yes, I did eat the Popeye's -- just a drumstick, though. Then the wine -- there was an 05 Kosta Browne Sonoma Coast Pinot and so much sparkling and two vintages of Clos Du Val Merlot and my 05 Cline Big Break Zinfandel, which I love dearly. And we laughed so hard at silly things and drew ridiculous pictures for our Wall of Ridiculous Pictures (you'll have to come over to understand). And there were sparklers and hats and horns, and the poor cats hid under the bed most of the time because we were so loud.

Today: More food. For breakfast, he spoiled us with his version of eggs benny, which means roasted pasilla peppers instead of ham, and yes, the hollandaise was homemade. And then we went to the racetrack for Dollar Day, and even though I lost $10, he managed to pick the lucky 13 horse as the winner and come out ahead.

And on the way home, the Taqueria Santa Cruz truck was out again, so we had our first burritos of 2008. And as expected, they were fabulous.
