new year's eve dinner

The setting: the living room. Middle tends the fire. Youngest lounges in the leather chair, Oldest contemplates his wine.

Oldest: Hey, are we having that peppercorn sauce with the filet?


K (from the kitchen): Yeah.


Youngest: Ah, peppercorn sauce. Second only to unicorn sauce.

Sounds delicious - the peppercorn, not the unicorn sauce.

Happy new year's to you and the family :)

Frankly, I like unicorn sauce. Its great on Spotted Owl w/ hearts of hummingbirds
And, I like your boys, they seem to be pretty cool and laid-back.

...hoping this is a great new year for everybody!
