MIA, Restaurant Week and TnT!

Sorry I have been MIA the last few days. A busy busy week. Work of course and then it was restaurant week in Madison. Meaning I HAD to go out for dinner at least 2 nights. Tuesday night was Kickshaw which was pretty yummy and a nice warm atmosphere. The company was great also :) but the winner was Wednesday night at Fresco. First of all the restaurant is on the roof top of The Madison Museum of Contemporary Art. Its a small restaurant basically made of glass so you can see out to all the surrounding buildings. In the summer it is amazing because they have a roof top sculpture garden and you can sit out there and enjoy the night. This past summer my sister got married in this garden so I really like this place. In January its a little to chilly to be outside but still a great view. Everything about this place feels romantic.

Anyways Jeremy and I had a date night and went here for dinner. We both got Scallops as an appetizer. I was going to try the butternut squash bisque but when Jeremy implied that he wasn't going to give me a bit of his scallop I figured I better get my own. Main course RICOTTA CHEESE GNOCCHI. Yum Yum Yum! Then Dessert Cinnamon Creme Brulee. My favorite is that little crunchy part on the top. A very enjoyable night.

Sorry I didn't take any pictures of the food. I think Jeremy finds it a little strange when I take pictures of food. You'd think he'd be use to the strange things I do by now. So no pictures of the food. but I will leave you with a few pics of this wonderful building which I am sure I will have to mention again in other posts. It has so many beautiful things about it I am sure I won't be able to mention it just once.




Did I say leave you? I forgot something important I wanted to mention the other event that kept me busy this week. Last night was the Kick Off party for Team in Training. That's right I am training to run my first half marathon. Yes me! Have I ever done this before? No! Am I a little terrified? YES! but along with training to run a marathon I am going to be raising money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. That is the part that really has me going. I will be training to help people who are much more terrified then me trying to run a few miles. They are terrified for their lives. So in the next few months along with decorating and design I am sure you will be hearing lots about my sore legs and how beautiful my feet are looking. Plus Hopefully lots about all the money I am raising for this cause. Make sure to check back and see how my training and Fundraising are going.

If you would like to make a donation and help me with this cause please click on the TnT button on the right side of my blog and stop by my fundraising page. Every dollar WILL help.
