Meal No. 1089: Birthday Beef Tenderloin

For me, a nice way to celebrate my birthday is to cook a favorite meal and to enjoy the company of some good friends. That's the way things played out last Saturday at the Roediger House, and we ate ourselves into a great food stupor.

Roasted Beef Tenderloin

Wine Sauce with onion, garlic, thyme, and mushroom
Stuffed Twice-Baked Potatoes

Layered Green Bean Casserole

A special brew brought by a guest

The loaded dinner plate.

A hastily-frosted chocolate buttercream mocha cake.

Yum.
