The Crew in Cape Coral

Last Saturday, we made the lonnnnng ride to the edge of the earth, that is, Craig and Vicki's on Pine Island Road in Cape Coral. The occasion - Gene's belated birthday or was it the Aberbach's anniversary? I've concluded that with this crew it doesn't really matter because between the 8 of our birthdays and 4 wedding anniversaries, we can make an excuse at least once a month to eat, drink and be extremely merry! And, when this gang gets together, good times roll!

Most of you know our history with these 3 couples. But for the rest, we have been travelin', raisin' kids and just plain enjoyin' life with Cheryl & Ken, Chris & Mike, and Craig & Vicki since before my little girl was a thought in our minds. Even after the arrival of children, the craziness has not yet been curbed. 

On the menu this lovely FL evening, prime rib on the grill (prepared in their fabulous new outdoor kitchen); twice baked spuds (which I resisted); brocolli and salad. Healthy, yes, delicious definitely. The General Tso's marinade on the prime rib was amazing. Does anyone know how many bottles of wine we went through - eeegads! And, like Chris said, vanilla vodka is not kind. For the record, I do NOT have the longest nose.

Many thanks to the Chief and this year's winner of So You Think You Can Dance!

Us girls

Perfectly prepared, Craig

Love this!
