Milestones

I would point out that January 27 is a significant date.  Not only is this W.A. Mozart’s 253rd birthday, but nineteen years ago today Mrs. R and I had our first (blind) date.

Where Was Robbo?

Because yesterday was my birthday, I took the day off, spending the morning with Mrs. R and, after she’d bustled off to start her new grad school course, the afternoon and evening with the gels.

Sunday night, in celebration, I had cooked a family favorite – a shrimp and prosciutto pasta dish.  Unfortunately, I got carried away and put in waaaaaay too much garlic.  (Yes, apparantly this can be done.)   Alas, the meal was roundly condemned at table, and all day yesterday I could still taste and smell it. Oh, well.
