adam and i just arrived in new york at six pm. we made reservations at Craft (ten blocks south of where we are). dinner was delicious and adam's sister caroline met us for a little bit to catch up.

sn:
foie grae starter
short ribs with a side of potato gratin (everything rich.. i didn't do a good balance)

am:
beet salad to start
monkfish with a side of garlic risotto (soo good)
Joe pointed out to me that this restaurant is Tom Cocclichio of Top Chef fame.

Maud

adam and i spent a peaceful afternoon in Maud, Oklahoma with his uncle Butch and Aunt Barb. they always have yummy snacks ready for us. These are photo's of their frozen pond. I walked on it for a second but it started to crack. They have a panther that visit's their property.


we took a walk around their land. Butch and Barb stayed inside because they were cold.

package





we received a christmas package from adam's uncle and aunt from Maud. i think she made these peanut brittle from scratch. i had a few but i'm sure adam won't notice. :)

she also sent me some towels that say, "ho ho ho." is she implying something?

it's almost christmas..


our neighbor liz invited us to a trunk show for a local jewelry designer. i was a bit hesitant to go especially because i am so awkward but turns out that one of the lady designer's work part-time at the coop. we purchased some earrings for my mom there. i'm glad i went, it was pretty fun..

adam said we have a total of seven friends in mount pleasant now. haha.
