As we didn't have the kids this Thanksgiving Greg decided to take me away for a few days to a surprise destination to The Inn at Morro Bay... it was great! The first night we had cocktails with a couple at the bar that owned a winery in Paso as we watched the sun go down over the bay. Enchanting. We reitred to our beautiful room with fireplace and down comforter and lites out!
I must say it was a bit strange not cooking the big dinner for the first time in many years, but it was delightful! I missed my kids terribly but did not miss the clean up. We took a drive into Pismo to get some bubbly and then back to see the Monarch butterflies :) It was a beautiful cool, fall weekend. We brought with us a beautiful bottle of our favorite Saarloos pino and enjoyed it
with our Thanksgiving dinner that night! Another beautiful sunset over the bay as greg enjoyed his ham and garlic mash potatoe stack and I worked on a beautiful piece of fish with a squash risot. I wouldn't have ordered dessert but it came with the fantastic dinner so of course I gave in! Apple Tartain and Sweet Potatoe souffle with marshmallow and maple topping. So so good! We are excited to go back soon and hit some golf balls as we found there was a great course right across the street. We have lots to be Thankful for at Thanksgiving and all year 'round; good health, family, love and laughter. Cheers to all who are a part of our flavors and adventures of life.
