What next?

Currently pondering which way to point the car. Healdsburg area looks cool, but it's 95 in shasta. Decisions, decisions...

EDK, Sam, and the best Carpaccio EVER!!!

We were thinking about a return trip to Rin's Thai, but alas, they are closed on Mondays. So, based on yelp, and a recommendation from mark and lori, we headed to the patio at EDk (aka El Dorado Kitchen). The patio was fabulous, the food was amazing and our server Sam was great!!!

Big standout for me (Kirstin) was the wagyu beef carpaccio. I LOVE Carpaccio, and they add a crispy jasmine rice to theirs that just tops any Carpaccio I have ever had. Sublime.

Photo time!

Sam :-)


























Dessert!!

























Cheers!!

















Terri's Ode to #20

Haiku:

Oh number twenty
The most delicious of Thai
Never forget you.




Limerick:

There once was a dish from Rinn's Thai
A little house not to pass by
The most beautiful dish
Not to be missed
Kirstin wished she'd had mine.

Our new bestest friend - E :-)

We met an amazing spirited young lady this weekend and feel the need to share our new friendship with our blog readers :-).

Meet Miss E (we're not sure how mom and dad feel about having their daughter's name and photo out there, so she's E to all of you ;-)

We met her at the festivities surrounding Cec and Joel's wedding, and what fun we had together!!! Then as a bonus, last night while wandering Sonoma, out of nowhere, she came running up to us screaming hello :-)

Here's our photo essay of E. Big hugs to you girl!!!! Make mom and dad come visit Portland soon!!!




The princess with the princess cake :-)

Til next time our paths cross. Thank you E from the bottom of our hearts for being you!!!!!
