Thanks, Sarah. We're having an okay time. This afternoon was a real
dud, though, for reasons I don't think I want to explain here. We
returned from dinner tonight at a neighborhood place ‹ a small
restaurant/cafe/brasserie (what's the difference between a café and a
brasserie?). Rob had lamb chops and I had a rib steak that was very
properly grilled. The smoked salmon entree wasn't the best I've ever
eaten but the mousse au chocolat was tasty. I can't wait to get home
