Cheryl and I celebrated our 33rd anniversary this week by eating at Nuvolari's in Mandeville, LA. It was pretty good but not necessarily worth what we paid for the meal. The service staff was excellent.
For starters we both had a wedge of lettuce with a bleu cheese dressing, bacon, and large chunks of bleu cheese. It was excellent. For our main course Cheryl had an 8 oz Filet with Flash Fried Oysters while I had a 14 oz Ribeye with Pan Seered Gulf Shrimp.
On April 10, the birthday of our son Ryan, we also lost a family member. George H. Grunewald Jr passed away in Cloverdale, CA. George lived in California with his sister Mickey and niece Marykate. Something that I did not know until today was that he was a member of a band back in the 80's named Short Dogs Grow. He went by the name George Fenley. He toured with them on a whim by hoping in their van with his drums and dressed only in a denim vest, a pair of shorts and some worn out tennis shoes. He wound up staying in California for most of the remainder of his life.
You will be missed George.
Say hello to Aunt Lele and Uncle George for us.
