flexing our mussels

It was another busy weekend with 2 long runs for Heidi (12 miles Saturday, 10 on Sunday), the BNIM company picnic and home repair projects (including regrouting and recaulking the shower). Tonight Mike made a delicious 'belated birthday' dinner of mussels with saffron and mustard, crusty bread, a mixed greens salad and homemade french fries!

Both the mussels and french fries are recipes from the Bouchon cookbook, and, this was the same birthday dinner that Heidi enjoyed last year while in dining at Bouchon in Napa with Amy and Terese!
