BK--you're leaving for the theatre at five your time?  Why so early?

No, I usually leave at about ten to six.  I like to get there by six-thirty - always have stuff to deal with, and I think I've just decided to put in a new song next week, to replace something that's just not working as well as I'd like.  Not sure the new song is better, but I'm gonna teach it to Jose today, and give it to the singer, and we'll rehearse it early in the week and put it in for Thursday if it's ready.  It's a lot of words, so it may take a bit longer.

Now I'm on my way to the theater.  Keep the home fries burning or, since Francois is the only one around, keep the home frittes burning.

Mais où est passé tout le monde?

Tonight I went out to dinner with my family at a bistro in Outremont and had:

Grilled squid and zuchinni in a balsmaic vinaigrette
Salmon tartare with truffle oil and a mixed green salad
Chocolate tart with ginger ice-cream

I also stole samples of the following from my fellow diners' plates:

Snails with Portobello mushrooms
Fish soup with aioli smeared croutons
Bavette and steak frites
Duck confit
Vanilla bean infused crème brulée
Lemon curd tart with tarragon sauce

It was yummers and I am oh so full... :)

Whenever I think of Natalie Wood, Maria from WSS is the first thing that comes to my mind.  If only it was actually her singing in the film...

and btw... the whole she-bang for six people including two bottles of wine and coffee was a very precise $299 CDN.

Not bad considering the quality and quantity of what we got...

Sorry!

Oh, I know Outremont! A very "trendy" part of Montréal indeed!

There was that movie theater I used to go to... some 30 years ago!

My satellite was down and I couldn’t connect.  What do I return to but Emily’s dinner menu.  :P  Well the desserts sound good and I have no idea what Bavette is.  I once tried snails but I was drunk.  Just another reason never to get drunk.

Bavette is a piece of beef cut in the neck area of the animal!

It's a little firm but very tasty!

What a frenzy Francios!

I have nothing to post. I am going to eat some dinner and watch the 1960s Italian sci-fi BATTLE OF THE WORLDS on DVD.
