Lynn's Birthday Dinner

Last September I posted the birthday dinner The Husband did for our friend, Kenny.  Last night The Husband put out an equally amazing spread for Kenny's wife, the lovely Lynn's birthday.

To start the festivities off I served "Hairy Sunrise" cocktails....they were very good, but I forgot the picture.

Opening cold appetizer, beef carpaccio served with homemade bread.

Second warm appetizer, ragout of wild mushrooms over homemade polenta.

Salad course, caprese.

Main course, linguine with clams in cream sauce.

Finally, dessert, individual homemade tiramisu.

And the Birthday Girl!

The Husband out did himself, this dinner was as close to perfect as you could get.  Even the under $10 wines we threw with this went perfectly.  And what can you say when you get to spend the evening with the your bestest friend.....PERFECT!
