Fine Dining

We had turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, homemade rolls, etc. last night – it was kind of a delayed Thanksgiving meal. Since we didn't do a the whole Thanksgiving spread at home this year, it was kind of fun to cook that meal and enjoy it on a cold winter's evening. The boys loved it and it made the house smell fabulous.

We're having another nice meal tonight at the church. It's our second annual Deipnon event. Deipnon is Greek for "feast;" it's a formal Christmas dinner at the church for which we invite folks from outside of church. Each party decorates their own table in advance and I just went and looked at some of the tables and they're pretty impressive.

Our table even has candles this year, so we'll be able to see what we eat!

The best eating though is probably the buffet at the New Theatre Restaurant. It's a really nice dinner theatre with a five-star kitchen. The entertainment is pretty good but the food almost beyond description. Shannon and I have been a couple of times and fully intend to get season tickets when we can afford it.
