Jim and I celebrated our third wedding anniversary today, so I cooked. We started with some boiled shrimp and a spicy cocktail sauce, the recipe from the Barefoot Contessa. For the toast we shared a bottle of Mumm DMV 2001 champagne.
We followed with a Caesar salad. The entree was grilled salmon with a crispy risotto cake in a Cabernet sauvignon sauce. I got that recipe from a new cookbook I got in Napa the other week entitled "Decanting Napa Valley - The Cookbook". To drink with our dinner we had a 1999 Napa Valley Silver Oak. While tasty it was not off the charts.
The greatest thing being married to Jim is the fact I can be me. He is a wonderful man and I love him with all my heart!! I hope to drive him crazy for many more years to come.
