Monday again. Seriously, why can’t all weekends be three-dayers? We finished off Alex’s 18th birthday celebration with a Saturday afternoon lunch a Morimoto (as in Iron Chef Morimoto) in Napa with Alex’s good friend Emily (they have been together since first grade…sigh). Alex’s birthday lasted a week and included 5 meals with 5 different sets of friends. That girl is something.
I didn’t do a good job of documenting our lunch…I tried, but somehow I didn’t capture the sea urchin carbonara, the most delicious light and fluffy (and warm) donuts dipped in lavender honey and green tea sugar) and the Taro Tartare, which I can’t even explain, you just have to try it. There were other delicious bites, and I consider it a win that I didn’t lick my plate.
We wandered around town and even played with the cha cha cha steps. Mostly we just felt like the past 18 years have gone by way too fast. Happy Monday.
