New food and Asher's 3rd Birthday! 10/2013

Jesse and I went with his Brother Baden & wonderful wife Mary Ellen to a fancy French restaurant to celebrate Jesse and Baden's birthdays. I discovered, I love French dessert, but food, not so much.  I tried four new things.  Baby octopus, which Jesse loved, was actually okay, but I didn't care for the texture.  I had parsnips, which were good.  I ate veal, which tasted really gamey, I'm not sure if that's how veal always tastes, or if it was the herbs de provence I didn't like.  The worst though was escargot. I literally was gagging it down.  It tastes like dirt and the texture is exactly what you imagine it would be. I will not be eating that again.  The ambiance and company made up for the food though.
This boy is three!  He's still so tiny!  He got yellow cake with rainbow chip frosting, simple as can be, with an unfrosted portion for picky siblings. He was easily pleased!
He likes the frosting!
It was nice of Grandpa and Grandma Fox to let us go to Foxhill to celebrate.
This girl is growing up!!
