Well, inspiration finally struck...sort of. Took out a package of beer brats from the freezer. Those'll go on the grill. Noticed there was a nice big bag of hash browns there, as well as some of the last of our corn-on-the-cob from our garden last summer. Kind of a strange combination, but we love everything. I just put several jars of assorted pickles in the fridge that I canned last summer, so we'll have some of those, too. Raisin pie for dessert.
We went to a shop called The Cheese Course and picked up a couple triple cremes, a nice roquefort, a peccorino infused with white truffle and we had some parm already. We also picked up some prosciutto, capicola, genoa, some fruit, a baguette and some champagne to wash it down. I made some good coin in the last 2 weeks, so we decided to indulge a little. I suggested either a flower bottle of Pierre Jouet (I was even going to suggest Krug) but Karen went with a little less expensive make.
