It's a Cliff... Howse 

Yesterday (Friday) I had to get up at 7:00 in the morning to prep all the workshops so people coule sign up for them at 8:00. I then hung around my computer for the rest of the morning in case the store needed to call me to make changes/updates.

Carrie made a trooly delicious onion, mushroom, salami, and cheddar cheese scramble for breakfast.

Around noonish we went to Target to buy Susan her birthday present. Which we did.

Around 6:00 we drove up to Carrie's folks' house with a bottle of wine that we'd gotten on our trip (the Ashland Vineyard's Shakespeare Merlot) and hung out with them for about an hour before we drove to the bottom of the cliff to meet the family at The Cliff House. Years and years (and years) ago Carrie's mom used to be the pastry chef at The Cliff House, but Carrie hadn't really been there since, so it'd been a long time. I can't ever recall having been there before.

Anyway, the whole family was there. Clockwise from me:
  • Alexis
  • Jason
  • Susan
  • My Da
  • Michael
  • My Ma
  • My Grandma
  • Carrie

I had some potato-leek soup (that was made with really thick heavy cream) and a steak. It was a very good steak. It had gorgonzola butter on it. Time for a heart attack!

Afterwards we all went over to my folks' house for presents and strawberry shortcake. We left just before Carrie's face was about to explode because of the cats. For some reason, my folks' house makes Carrie's allergies go crazy-go-nuts.

Unfortunately, we didn't get home in time to see the season premier of Numb3rs.
