Anniversary Dinner

[Winz]

Mrs. Winz and I celebrated 30 years of marriage today.  Looking forward to the next 30 (if she'll have me!)

Decided a nice dinner on the deck was the right idea.

Beginnings of a grilled vegetable salad.  Bisbee gets the call:





Some cedar planked salmon coated in olive oil and dry rubbed:



All plated up.  Salmon, roasted veggies with balsamic vinaigrette, Caesar salad with homemade croutons and dressing.



Creme Brûlée for dessert.  Next time I am making this on the kettle as well.....



Cheers,

Winz

Congratulations Jeff and Shelly. I can see both of you together for 30+ more years. One of the nicest couple I have ever met. Great cook. Food looks delicious.

Congrats Winz!  30yrs is truly an accomplishment.
Dinner looks amazing.  Bisbee and the salmon matches the salmon/copper tones of the Rose.  Sinskey?  Something from Bandol?  Man, I need to drink more wine!

Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Winz on a huge milestone! It takes something really special to last 30 years, and what a way to celebrate!

I bet cooking up wonderful meals like that has something to do with why she still keeps you around

Again, congrats!

Good job Winz!

And dinner on the deck looks nice.

Keep it up, another six years and you'll catch up to my wife and I     

[Winz]

Thank you all for the very kind words and well-wishes.  I consider myself a very lucky man to have found the right partner early in my life.  She is a saint!

Sinskey?  Something from Bandol?  Man, I need to drink more wine!

Salad - Actually an Amador County Barbara Rose.  When you are ready to drink more wine, let me know.  Mrs Winz owns/runs a wine shop and has quite the palate.

Amen to that!  Family dinners have always been a big part of our lives - and a great excuse for me to buy more stuff  (Webers, cast iron, kitchen knives, etc, etc).

Winz, I've had that Caesar salad.....you're a keeper !!!!

K - Well, at least the salad is a keeper...  It has taken me a while (15 years), but that is one recipe I have tuned to "just the way we like it".

The 15 years of fine tuning a salad recipe is WHY you're a keeper......get it?
