So, American Idol is left with 3 great performers. At this point, its pretty much down to personal prefrence. I like Blake. I like Jordin. Melinda is great vocally, but doesnt do it for me performance wise. Just something about her I'm not a fan of. I have to say, I'm hoping for Blake to win it. I, however, don't vote, so...what America decides....
On to more important matters. Last night my wonderful husband took me out to celebrate my birthday. My birthday is on Thursday, but he works until 10pm, so that wasnt a great option. We first stopped at Shane Co. Turns out one of my side diamonds was loose, so they took my ring to fix it. My left hand is naked now! From there we went to "Winzer Stube German Restaurant" in Hudson, WI. Ive never gone to another state for the sole purpose of celebrating my birthday. Ive also never had authentic, German restaurant fare. We started with Frische Champignons in Krauterbutter. (mushrooms in garlic butter) SOOO yummy! I had Schlemmertopf Hochwald (beef tenderloins, spatzel and mushrooms in a cream sauce) and Nick had Wienerschnitzel mit Pommes Frites (breaded veal cutlet pan fried, with friech fries, anchovies and capers). As the menu stated...if it isnt Veal, its just not the same....apparently a well known fact among rocket scientists. Anyway, our impression of the restaurant was great. It was not over crowded yet not empty. The food was fantastic. We will definately return, and likely with our parents, maybe even some friends. It was great. After we came back home, I was surprised with two gifts. Bring it On and a mandolin slicer. Both items were high up on my list. It was a great birthday celebration. Now I just need to work on topping that for my husband next week.
