Mistletoe and Holly

I had to work and have caught a horrible head cold, but Michael and I managed to have a tres romantique Christmas Eve with a late dinner at Gascogne here in the neighborhood. Michael had a Mesclun salad and shell steak (delish!) and I had the lobster ravioli in truffle sauce appetizer (outstanding!) followed by (my personal French fave) cassoulet ("traditional bean casserole, duck confit, and garlic sausage"). If you haven't been to Gascogne then you must. The service is outstanding and the candles, the Christmas tree in the back garden and the dreamy dinner company were about all I could ask for this Christmas. Michael's off to be with his family on Long Island today and I'm -- you guessed it -- off to work. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas wherever you are ...
