My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food ." Psalm 63:5. Monday, June 7, 2010. Birthday Dinner at Tautog's. My good friends Heather and Ally have birthdays only four days apart this week, so we celebrated together yesterday in Virginia Beach. The three of us laid by the pool for a couple of hours and read, then met up with our husbands for dinner at Tautog's. For the table – a nice crisp, citrus-y New Zealand sauvignon blanc that went well with the fish. 8211; much better than the average dip!

Last week Randy and Kim invited me and Topher to join them and our friends Mike and Jane one night for dinner at a hole-in-the-wall eatery in Portsmouth: Stove, the restaurant. The whole evening was a bizarre, delicious experience. So I was hopeful. Crazy thunder and lightning, driving sheets of rain, downed trees, flooded streets - it was a mess. Once inside the real fun began: the ...
