At the Roediger House tonight, a celebration (Jen Martin's birthday) and a sadness (Beau Ward's departure). The fitting dinner menu for great occasions here gravitates most towards a healthy beef tenderloin in wine sauce, with a creamy spicy horseradish sauce, layered green bean casserole, and the Jones family favorite: company mashed potatoes.
I didn't get around to making dessert, but boy-howdy, the gelato at Caffe Prada has been mighty fine, so we took a stroll to this great shop behind the house, on Broad Street, for our sweet endings.
