This collection of entries is from September 15, 2003.
Carol and I had our anniversary dinner tonight at Wildfire in Schaumburg. It's our first time there (we've been to the one downtown a few times and love the place). Well, we found something that looked great and was. The problem was that we both ordered it and we were looped before the appetizers arrived. We each had a Flight of Martinis - a wonderful way to taste their signature drinks. There was a Cosmopolitan (Absolut Citron, Cointreau, cranberry, lime), Green Apple Martini (Vox Vodka, De Kuyper Sour Apple Pucker, Lemonade, Sprite), Wild Raspberry Cosmopolitan (Stoli Raspberry, Triple Sec, cranberry, raspberry syrup), and Lemon Drop (Ketle One Citroen, sour mix, Sprite, sugared rim). Wonderful. Got through appetizers, salad, and barely got through the entrée and had to stop and skip dessert. Too full and too, um, mellow. Great night.
