November 8-Birthday Brunch for Konami

November 7th is Konami's birthday, but she has homework due on Saturdays (yuck), so we celebrated with her on Sunday. We all went to Cafe Rouge for brunch and then browsed the shops on 4th Street. The food was delicious (Julian makes up the brunch menu) and Julian sent us salad, a cheese plate, and oysters. The dishes we ordered were: poached eggs with salmon and hollandaise sauce on toast, pancakes with caramelized persimmons and goat milk butter, scrambled eggs with mushrooms, and a hamburger. Our desserts were super yummy too--a pumpkin pot de creme and a ginger snap and goat cheese ice cream sandwich (goat cheese ice cream!). Sorry, no photos of us at the table.

The day was beautiful and it was nice to do some window shopping. Here is a photo of Annika on a dog rocking horse:



I wish I had centered these photos better, but I like them anyway. Here are some photos of Kellie and Konami with Annika:





I also wish I had a photo of all five of us together, but here is one that Kellie took of Annika, me, Konami, and Andrea:



And one of Kellie, me, Annika, and Konami:
