Yesterday was a perfect day for outdoor dining, but our dining room table doesn't maneuver to the patio as well as it did in our California apartment. We used to fit our table half in/half out the balcony door, light the candles, bring out the fine china and sit on the part of the table that was on the balcony. We had many a fine dinner out there. Since our apartment faced the front gate, though, we mainly overlooked the traffic coming in and out, the horn-honking, etc. It was entertaining though.

Well, here the way the apartment is set up, it just wouldn't work without rearranging everything. So instead, we had an afternoon fancy-snack of Ciabatta bread fresh from Trader Joe's with English coastal chedder, English onion cheddar, New York cheddar and pepper-jack cheeses on our patio, served on our china platter, on a stool. It was pretty good, the view is much better here, and much more peaceful. My only recommendation for change is that personally I think that crackers tend to complement the cheese flavor more than the bread. Although that ciabatta bread was out of this world.

In case you were wondering why I look patchy, I was experimenting with the Paint program. It looked great in large view but kinda not so great here. Plus, please excuse the PJ's.
