Saturday AM, we moved the leaves in our backyard. Since we share an enormous area with some cool, groovy neighbors, we share in the leaves too. Paul had the leaf blower going, Amy and two of her neat kids were raking and dragging and in less than and hour and a half, we had the whole yard cleared. By Saturday afternoon it didn't look like we had done anything but from the front of the house, the piles are huge. Hopefully the city will pick them up on Monday. Here's hoping.
No Saturday is complete without a trip to our fav store, Art of the Table. We bought a couple of delicious wines for our Saturday dinner, some excellent dried sun tomatoes and pesto dip, a couple of fabulous candles and my rad chocolate (and it's Jennifer's fault) Patricia's Chocolates. Heaven.
Saturday night, Paul made a prime rib that was nothing short of magnificent. We had friends for dinner - Pat, Mary, Margaret and Deb. It was a night of terrific food, great conversation and amazing wine. Nights like this are a gift and we were so grateful to celebrate the night in such style.
We ended the weekend quietly with a relaxing afternoon and roast beef leftovers. Of course, Mr. Handsome had a bit to share. He was doing the happy dance all the way to his bowl. Tomorrow, it's back to work while we back and finish moving our office. Happy Monday!

Such a geek....

How cool your neighbors all pitch in. I don't even know our neighbors. So much for community when you're surrounded by 7 foot block walls.
Wish I could have been their wielding a rake!

Thanks for the glowing shout out. Without friends and food loving customers like yourselves... there would be no AotT.
