Winter Walk

Already gasping for breath!

Jamie thinks we're going to find bears.... we find a train instead.

See the owl in there?

Februrary in a nutshell.

Tuxedo strawberries I made for valentines - 3 hours of hand-dipping, but Jason thought they were worth it.

(also on the 5-course menu: crab wontons to start, caesar salad, brushetta, hand-made lobster ravioli in pink sauce, and wild berries in icewine cream for dessert).

Jason looking sharp for his friend's birthday at a steak house where the food turned out to be not so good...not to self: Jason is not a fan of leeks.

Christmas Dinner

Jason decides to spend Christmas very casual this year.

The beautiful crown roast - took forever just to find a butcher who would special order it for us, but so worth it in the end!

Christmas morning

Tradition dictates: opening the stocking in bed.

First gift of the morning!

For some unknown reason he really, really wanted a deep fryer.

Despite the look on his face, Jason assures Jamie that he liked the shirt and tie from Jones New York.

Jason at the breakfast table - baked french toast and hot chocolate mochas, yum!

Christmas Eve

Jason got home from work after 5, and the hors d'oeuvres were hot and waiting for him - onion & bacon crostini, crab-stuffed mushrooms, and blue-cheese shrimp cocktail (plus some riesling for good measure).

Jason pilferred these antlers from his work.

The tree is only 3 feet tall but has plenty of room for presents underneath!

The table is set - is dinner ready yet? We had a midnight dinner - prime rib, potatoes and goat cheese au gratin, stuffed red peppers, brown butter carrots....and yummy carrot cake for dessert (and merlot to drink, of course).
