Dinner with Wendy

Wendy dropped in with dinner tonight, thinking that she'd leave her fabulous home cooked meal and jet. Little did she know we'd rope her in with wine so that she'd join us at the table. And what a dinner it was! We started with a wedge salad with garden tomatoes, her homemade dressing and blue cheese crumbles (my first time eating blue cheese since before I was pregnant). Next up, creamy polenta with wild mushroom sugo, braised in her own duck stock. And we finished with a flourless chocolate cake! While I would have preferred to get a picture 'with' Wendy, Meryl chose to eat her own dinner for two hours, preventing any such opportunity - including me eating dinner with her and Frank. So glad we have a couch in the kitchen! Nonetheless, it was great to see her and, as always, hear about life outside the house.
