We Doggies Don't Get to Eat Chocolate Mousse



Janet invited their friends, Lori and Steve over for dinner last night.  She made Smoked Salmon Roll Ups, Pan Seared Halibut with Lemon Garlic Vin Blanc and Tuscan Bread Salad.  The halibut was the first of the season...Janet said it was nice to finally see fresh seafood.  For dessert, she made Chocolate Mousse. 

Delicious, Jeremy said!
While Janet was making the mousse, she told us she was remembering "The Girls Trip to SFO" which Janet cannot believe was one year ago this week.  This was what spurred the memory:
Janet used Ghirardelli chocolate to make the mousse.  The trip was supposed to be with all three "dots" but Briana had to cancel at the last minute due a work commitment.  When Briana was a very small child, she got lost at Ghirardelli Square.  Janet, perhaps setting a pattern for being really nutty later in life,  patiently waited in line at the Concierge Desk to inquire after her lost child.  Janet said the line up was about 15 minutes long!  Don't even get Briana started on when she fell out of a moving vehicle....twice.  Poor Banana!


In an effort to prove that Briana escaped from her dodgy childhood unscathed, here is a photo of she and her fiance, Ted.  Although the Ghirardelli Square incident was way before our time, it appears to us that she has adjusted from the trauma.  Bet you anything, she knit that scarf!











Meg and Bronwyn were toasting Briana at Gary Danko Restaurant.

    1. You think the two of you have "man hands"? I could have been the actress on the man hands episode of Seinfield!
