It was time for an East Boulder Valley party and we decided it was time for us to give one. Out of our usual group, Boo and Terry couldn’t join us—they are in Sedona on vacation. But Robyn & Claire, Nancy & Geoff and George & Shirley enjoyed a great meal with us. We have the best of friends here on the East Boulder, just a wonderful group of people. The conversation is always good and Emmi gets lots and lots of attention.
I grilled a filet mignon roast, made garlic mashed potatoes, roasted brussel sprouts and made a salad for which Nancy created the dressing. For dessert I whipped up a chocolate flourless torte—oh my gosh, why did I even bother with dinner—should have just eaten cake! What a great meal even if I did cook it myself!
Picked tomatoes off those vines again today, those purple tomatoes are a heirloom variety and very tasty!
Hunting season started today and we told this guy if he would stay between our fences he would be safe.
The tomatoes look lucious, and I hope the buck listened to you. :)
