Before his birthday photos though, I wanted to show you a couple of pictures of where he works. I had to bring him something recently, so I took a couple of pics as I waited for him. He works as a chef at the golf course restaurant in our town. The restaurant is open to the public too. It's a very nice place. (Sorry for the dark photos...)
Here he is, coming down the hill to meet me (he is in his chef's coat...)
Now here are the photos, where we ate at this other cute little restaurant for his birthday. Here he is having his first "legal" cocktail! LOL! He had Scotch on the rocks, I had a Manhattan straight up.
For appetizers, we ordered the Nachos and the Spinach-Artichoke Dip. And I MUST say that my son's spinach-artichoke dip that he makes is ten times better than the one that we had here! --His nachos are better too ;)
Here's one that he took of 'yours truly' -- I regret not thinking of asking the waitress to take one of us together! Oh well...
Do you like his shirt? (talk about dressing casual!) As many of you remember, we are originally from Brooklyn, New York, so I got this shirt for him. You can't see it, but in each letter, all the different 'neighborhoods' of Brooklyn are written in tiny letters!
This is a face that says: "Still with the pictures? OK, enough already..."
I forgot to take pics of our entrees... He had a steak, and I can't even remember what I had... isn't that sad?? Anyway, we both ordered Irish Coffee... The one we got is called "The Nutty Irishman" and it is SO delicious. It is made with Irish whiskey, Bailey's Irish Cream, Frangelico, and something else, I forget. I always get it at this place, I love it!
Here we are, back home and here's his cake!!
And here you can see proof of why I said that cake decorating is not my strong suit. :)
I hope he made a good wish!
Hope you enjoyed the photos and thanks for visiting! Best,
Gloria
