Mmmmm….

Sarah is off in Long Island visiting Michelle and family — she, Michelle, was going to come down the her 4 kids last weekend but Justin had a nasty fever. Now all but Tessa are under the weather. Since Michelle really wanted a chance to just chat with Sarah over a glass (or two) of wine and was willing to drive down with the kids to do some museum touring in order to put them to bed and talk a bit, and since Sarah really wanted a chance to catch up with Michelle, the train trip up for dinner made some sense.

So while Sarah and Michelle went out after feeding Michelle’s kids, Robert and I walked down to the river and then stopped off at Pines of Florence for dinner on the way home. This was a chance for Robert to compare the spaghetti with meat sauce at the “Pines” with the spaghetti at the Robin Inn in Richmond (where we stopped off last weekend on our way home from a visit with Martha).

After eating about half of a very large adult portion of spaghetti tonight, Robert pronounced the spaghetti at the Robin Inn better. I’m not really sure why and while I’d like him to be more supportive of our local spaghetti house, I really have a very warm spot in my heart for the Robin Inn where I went with my folks some 30 years ago.
