This month is supposed to be 'austerity November' - we had a pretty decadent October and really need to get re-focused on our healthy eating and exercise habits. Last night I had planned a tasty-but-healthy dinner of homemade chicken and vegetable soup with rice. But then my husband came home and reminded me that yesterday was his 5-year anniversary at the company where he works. In this economic climate, that really is something to celebrate. To top it off, we had a cold bottle of Billecart-Salmon rose in the fridge - the perfect celebration champagne - so how could we let the milestone pass without bubbles? The richness of the champagne was perfect for the evening, and actually went pretty well with the soup!!
Not a great start to 'austerity November', but we got my husband's sixth year at this company kicked off properly!
He's too funny, too. So we won't be tempted to celebrate too many more things in November, my husband filled the champagne shelf with a bottle of Philizot & Fils brut numero 2. Neither of us will be rushing to drink that anytime soon...
