The hubs and I decided to rent a couple of electric bikes from Change of Greenery in Napa, this new company that provides the perfect kind of bike for Napa - one with a lithium ion battery for powering the engine when you're tired (or drunk). So I was definitely up for a 30-mile bike ride that included 6 wineries, 1 with all-you-can-eat flatbread pizza.
Between mouthfuls of pizza, Matt took the time to appreciate his food, something he rarely does at the speed he eats. "Everything in Napa is organic, huh? Like the cheese is right from the cow's butt."
Uh, yeah.
We also took the time to act civilized and dress like adults, a far cry from the ratty t-shirts and sweatpants I'd been sporting most of last month. Which led to the following observation by my hubs:
"This is a strange shirt you have on. It's like a shawl and a sweater. (thoughtful pause.) Is it a shetter?"
Lastly, we went to eat at Bouchon, an amazing Thomas Keller restaurant in Yountville. Matt was pretty surprised at the amount of food served to us at this gourmet restaurant -- usually he leaves hungry from places with high price tags. He grinned at me when my enormous plate of steak frites arrived and when he held up his hand, then realized I wouldn't high-five him back, I heard him speak softly to himself. "Oh. No high-fiving in this restaurant, right? This is not Red Robin, Matt."
Uh, yeah.
Mmmm, fromage de la merde. Straight from the cows butt
