This Way to a Great Dinner. Not That Way Meat You Moron!

friday in san francicso, we went on a bay cruise. we hopped on a big boat and went around the san fran bay, and even went under the golden gate bridge. that's right folks, i have now been in the pacific ocean. the ocean is now a little cooler. not temperature wise of course, socially. on our way back to port, we went around alcatraz. it was nice seeing it from a different angle. but i felt like i already knew everything there was to know about the rock. i mean, ive seen a few movies and did a tour. lock me in there and i'll be eating rice-a-roni on the beach in just a few hours. can't no prison hold me!!!!
that evening mrs. meat and i went on our official anniversary dinner. we went to the swank italian joint called e tuttu qua. i'm sure there are supposed to be accents on some of those letters, but i don't feel like doing that. put 'em wherever you'd like. we ordered a bottle of wine (reisling of course. it's the lay-tay's favorite), some seared sea scallops in a mushroom sauce and it was excellect. for the main course, mi amor  ordered linguine with shrimp in a light red sauce. (light as in weight, not color.) i being the meat minded meathead that i am went with the lamb loin stuffed with pesto.  oh my. if i could eat that every day, i would never cook. so good. mmmmmmm. sorry. just drooled on my computer. we were enjoying everything so much, we ordered another bottle of wine. the good thing about the city is, no worries on who's drivin' home. we within a half-mile. so we finished out dinner and just sat watching the hustle and bustle of an amazing italian restaurant, on a busy friday night while we sipped our wine. if when we left i hadn't taken us a half-mile in the wrong direction, it would have been a perfect evening. but since that was the only bad thing, i'd say it went well.
