7th Year Anniversary and mmm… Silver Oak
I can’t believe it’s been 7 years! Time really does go by fast. Skye and I went to Café Piccalo in Long Beach on Sunday and opened up our 2000 Silver Oak bottle of Cabernet.
We had been sitting on that bottle for the past few (5) years. At first we were going to open it when we bought the house, then it turned into, “When the remodeling is completed,” then, “After Skyler’s born,” then, “After 6 months.” (the whole breast feeding thing) then…..Ah for our 7th Anniversary. Ta-daaa.
So like I said, we went to Café Piccalo in Long Beach where I proposed to Skye some 8 years ago, also where we had our rehearsal dinner and, by the by, it’s also the same place Skye had the cops called on her as well.
Needless to say a lot of history. We hadn’t been there in about 4 years. A lot has happened in the past four years so this was a long over due celebration.
We started off with Escargots in garlic and butter, moved on to a fresh salad for Skye and a creamy minestrone soup for me. Main course was an exquisite and perfectly cooked tender loin for me and lamb on a bed of pasta for Skye. Throughout all we perfectly paced ourselves with our fine bottle of Silver Oak. The last bite matched our last sip of the oak infested earthy goodness. What a dinner! A perfect marriage between the food and wine. A perfect marriage.
