Halloween

I went to a Halloween party at Amy and Chris' house. Here's a picture of Amy (scary clown) and me in front of a spider web covered Hans Solo (the Hans Solo is a permanent fixture in their house).

Stuck in the snow

Haha!! This morning I pulled 30 ft out of my garage and got completely stuck. I ran back in the apt and put on my boots and then tried to shovel myself out. I somehow managed to get myself turned back around and out to a plowed road. At that point I thought I could make it to my aunt's house and her 4 wheel drive car for a ride to work. I got stuck trying to go down her neighborhood street. I shoveled once again but then really was stuck. Luckily a nice neighbor pushed my car out. I then went home and stayed put.

Snooze

Some co-workers and I took our manager out to breakfast for Boss' Day last Friday. We went to a place called Snooze. It's a very popular place on the weekends. The decor has a fun 50s feel. The homemade English muffin is delicious as well as the tomato gravy. I definitely want to go back and try more on the menu.

Lyle Lovett and John Hiatt

I attended a Lyle Lovett and John Hiatt concert with Joan, Ellen, Dave and Tony at the Macky Auditorium in Boulder. The review in the Denver Post covers it better then I could write. It was fun hearing Lyle on his own and in an informal environment.

The Last Supper

Megan and I had our last dinner at Potager before she moved to Florida. I've written about Potager in the past. It is a really tiny restaurant. They always are changing the menu based on what is grown locally and in season. Megan and I split an appetizer - a little bit of syrup with a whole tomato (top and bottom sliced off), baked in a ramekin with a puff pastry on top, then flipped upside down when taken out of the oven and goat cheese and basil on top. Simple, yet delicious. Another dish we tried there a couple of weeks earlier was a goat cheese souffle with beets. You would never think to combine the two - but once again delicious. I will miss my try-new-restaurants and attend-cultural-events friend!
