U.S.D.A. Prime

I just want to say thank you to those of you who were able to make it out to Bridgepointe for my feast. Regretfully, I wasn't able to revel in a toast to everyone for another year filled with good memories and good friends (the champagne is still in the fridge!) but I am eternally grateful for my adopted family.

Regardless of all the stress related to supplying a new apartment and preparing a 4 course meal for 16 people, I'm hopeful that everyone was able to enjoy a pleasant evening in the company of good friends. The wine didn't hurt either!

You probably can't tell, but I'm really drunk right now :)

Here's to another year filled with good tidings, loving friends, and memories to last a lifetime.
Thanks, UPSer for peelin' potatoes. Thanks Shalamar for the wonderfully sublime '95 Tapestry Reserve. Thanks OJ & Tin for keeping me company with comforting conversation past your bedtime on this rainy Sunday night...and thanks all for making the bay area feel so much like home.

This was such a fun evening, I can't wait 'til the next one. Hmmm...salmon roe? cheese/wine pairings? Turducken?

It was certainly my pleasure to celebrate another year of friendship with y'all!

Let me know if you want the cheesecake recipe. It's actually pretty easy, the only annoying thing was without a food processor, I ended up creating my own graham cracker crumbs using a ziploc bag and a heavy cooking pan :) And I was supposed to put like blueberry, cherry, or strawberry pie filling on top -- but I find it makes it way too sweet.

Thanks for hosting a great party. As usual the food was great, and the company priceless. Here's to more of the same next year.
