1 year anniversary

It was our official 1 year anniversary of marital bliss on Saturday. We made plans for dinner at HB in Chicago and a Second City show. Dinner was great, and the show was definitely hilarious. I was so full by the end of dinner that the hubby needed to roll me out of there to go to the show where I worked my ab muscles by laughing to death.

I have two words for you. Rabbit Risotto. YUM!!! That was definitely the highlight of dinner. The risotto had braised rabbit, green apple, roasted fennel, and parmesan. It was delightful and creamy. The rabbit was tender and fell apart in your mouth and the green apply provided enough crunch and sweetness to the dish. We also had a lamb stew, seafood bouillabaisse, and Amsterdam style mussels for dinner, but that risotto inspired me enough to want to recreate it at home. I'll play around and post the recipe once I'm done experimenting.

All in all, the anniversary was fantastic. What better way to celebrate our 1 year, than a night of laughs and a fabulous dinner. I love my hubby.
