Ok, ya'll. I had to run over to the computer between courses and share what is going on in David's kitchen right this very moment. We just finished the salad course. Between the wine and champaigne, somehow, we are working margaritas in, too. Seriously! Happy Friday! ~Tammy Mindy

Ok, I'm having a hard time getting past the Queen Mum's Shrimp and I know there's a chocolate sauce option after. Those shrimp just sound AMAZING!
