This week has been a busy one for me. Not only am I still trying to play catch-up at work since Interbike, but Wednesday was Julie's birthday and today was our wedding anniversary.
Because of all of the expenses we have incurred lately because of our dogs, we agreed not to do anything or buy gifts for each other this year...but I couldn't resist, I love to surprise Julie with something unexpected. I wanted to take her to a nice dinner for her birthday and I wanted it to be somewhere unique.
I had seen a restaurant near Cadence 120 that had peaked my interest, but I guess never enough for me to go there. Over the years, I hadn't even heard anyone mentioning that they had been there. Well I have to tell you, Blu Bistro was a hit!
For starters, we had Potato Gnocchi and Shiitake Mushrooms with Dry Cured Ham and Parmesan Cream and we also had Fried Green Tomato with Herbed Goat Cheese and Shrimp Remoulade. Of course I had to have a Caesar salad too. For dinner, Julie had a Seared Fourteen Ounce Center Cut Ribeye with Potatoes Lyonnaise, Paprika Onion Crisps and Herbed Butter and I had Fresh Red Fish, Blackened with Sautéed Jumbo Lump Crabmeat. To end it all, we split a Key Lime pie.
During dinner, I gave Julie her gift from Hayes Jewelers.
I had no special plans for our anniversary today, but I did have another surprise for her from Hayes.
