27 years of bledded wiss

We paused just a moment to celebrate our 27th wedding anniversary, to each other no less.
John made Charlene's salad (romaine and chevre tossed with bacon that has been fried in olive oil with garlic and walnuts) and roasted a delectable rack of lamb, we had a 2002 Duetz Blanc de Blanc, and a delightful bottle of Pahlmeyer red wine.
thanks to Thad and Lynn for helping us celebrate with a gift of Veuve and a book of Champagne cocktails, which will be useful for the Champagne Breakfast on Jan. 20.
