Things we've been drinking

We (I) first found Clementine at a bar in Chicago - Pippin's, pretty sure. Nicer dive-y place with great hotdogs and even better beer. I was really upset as I learned with each bar we went to that Chicago microbrews had such limited ability to export to other states, if they could manage to distribute at all. Really sad that I would possibly never have clementine again unless back in Windy City. Massachusetts is so weird about distribution and it's hard for small mid-west shops to distribute anyway with all big brewery conglomerates around.  Well wouldn't you know. Clown Shoes  is made in Massachusetts! Happy Day! Now, can someone tell me how I can get Great Lakes Eliot Ness to the Commonwealth?
Cocktail hour
Good follow up to the white wine I was having the other night, inbetween shaken white russion milkshakes. ALso good with eggplant parmisian, garlic bread, pasta and marinara. And while watching John Stewart. 

Typical Dinner Night

Tonight we had eggplant parm, garlic bread, and cauliflower - which if you dont like, i suggest eating with pepper and marinara sauce. 
 Oh yeah, pasta is going in that bowl. Just a few minutes more!
The meal was made with no butter. But I've had lots of wine, so I think it balances out.

Valentines

Tyler said let's go out to dinner for Valentines. And then when we got home he said good call for going out tonight! i had to remind him that it was his idea!


Went to our favorite romantic place - Sabur. It's never busy, the bar is sooo cozy. Great service, wonderful pinot noir that we both are in love with, and 5 courses for under $120. And, the food is amazing. We got two deserts each!
