DH, Tarb and I got away from the city and stayed at a charming (though slightly over priced!!) bed and breakfast. The food and service was excellent so no complaints from me. Tarb loved it. The serve cheese and wine in the afternoons and warm milk and cookies at bedtime. "Best of all", they had Barney DVDs so Tarb was all like, "This is the best hotel EVER!!".
This was the view from our room... (annoyingly crooked shot but I didn't take it...)
The area surrounding a church we visited...
So here are some of the culinary delights we feasted on...
Not sure if this looks appetizing but I assure you it was an absolute delight to my palate - foie gras on caramelized figs. It totally satisfied. Our bodies really know what we need. I'm anemic (pregnant or not) and I've been seriously craving a meat and and anything with that iron-y taste.
DH started with oysters delicately arranged over pasta and topped with caviar. Don't ask me what was in the sauce. I dipped my spoon in it (didn't want to risk the oysters even if they were slightly cooked) and it was heaven.
Tarb took this picture of her order - pasta with sweet tomato sauce and sausage.
For our mains, DH and I split an order of rib eye steak. Here it is - medium - reflected in a divine peppery reduction.
Breakfast was nice too. I had pancakes and Tarb had Nut.ella filled french toast...
Have a check up on Thursday. Hoping and praying for more good news...
