Girls…Girls…Girls and a post-thanksgiving meal

written by 2gourmaniacs November 27, 2009

girls

T’was the night after Thanksgiving, and it was girls’ night at 2gourmaniacs. Except, of course, Robert hung out and provided some culinary enjoyment (not to mention wit and an obviously too long and convoluted story about photographing tequila production in Los Altos Jalisco at the end of August). Actually, everyone was pretty stuffed from the day before, so Robert rooted around in the refrigerators and came up with some of the home-made veal ravioli and veal reduction sauce that he made earlier in the week. Rosaria topped some of her curried chicken salad on freshly baked Indian crackers for an appetizer at the island in the kitchen. We also had a substantial salad with homemade vinaigrette. And for dessert, after some prompting, the girls caved in and they each had a very thin sliver of pear tart.

What started out as a teetolling evening quickly became a two bottle of chardonnay event. A great pick up meal, lots of laughs, and a good time was had by all.
