On the anniversary of last years crash. We celebrated. I gave out thanks to the Kross Kontingent that made my world a better place. The scent of fennel filled the air from the Waterzooi, a Belgian stew. We had Chimay Cheese, St Alban and another,I didn't see the label with bread for appetizers. The The Frites came out of the oven and we all sat down to eat.

Now Frites (french fries) with mayo, sounds weird actually tasted pretty good. Not being a big mayo fan. Beers, too many to list, check the fridge. Elliot brought even more and graced us with two bottles of Westvleteren (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB119617857954505332.html)

Now mind you this beer sells for 400$ a case. He said the Blue is good,but that the Gold is the best. It was very tasty. We also hard Maredsous. Which has been described as a double mouth orgasm. Christmas Ales and on. Belgian truffles and chocolate for dessert. The waffle maker waited in the wings,but wasn't used. Quite a night of revelry. Thank you all for all the help.

Music ranged from the Trans Siberian Orchestra to Warren Zevon and back to Christmas music by Jimmy Buffet, Keb Mo' and Bette Midler.
