Silverman's

This has been a busy week so my post is actually from last Sunday night. We had dinner at our friends, the Silverman's, home. It was an amazingly clear night and we enjoyed a Matanzas Creek chardonnay on their deck... which has astonishing sunset views from the city across the bay to Mt. Tam. Victoria made her famous creole shrimp with Louisiana hot sauce and homemade ice cream with fresh fruit. Lots of laughs accompanied by great food and wine is the ideal way to end a weekend!

The Pasta Bowl

I took a group from the agency to the 3rd Annual 49er Foundation Pasta Bowl. It was at the Santa Clara Convention Center. We had two rookie linebackers at our table (great guys) who were there to help me serve dinner to the table. It was a very nice night for a really good cause. Every time I hear Mike Singletary speak I want to work even harder and do even more!

SF Giants Food

Took Carol and Annika to the Giants game today. Beautiful sunshine and a Giants win. Seemed like it was nearly a full house. All the food is pretty basic at the park but the Garlic Fries are something else. Loaded with fresh garlic and sprinkled with parsley they have a sharp flavor. On the heart health scale I wonder if the garlic offsets the frying of the potatoes?
