First course: Green salad with Hazel nuts and Balsamic vinagrette
Roasted hazelnuts in the oven and chopped to small pieces, not too small. Sprinkle the hazelnuts on top of green salad. Balsamic vinagrette is made of olive oil, sea salt, sugar, balsamic vinegar and fresh grounded peppers. Mix well all ingredients together. Add salt to taste. Simple, easy and delicious.

榛子烤熟,切碎, 撒在素菜上. 意大利香醋dressing是用意大利香醋加柑榄油, 糖, 海盐, 和黑胡椒做成的. 很简单.



Second course: Cheese Fondue
Don't want to do too much in the special day. So, I bought a bag of Fondue mix. I prepared some French bread cube and some fresh vegetables. It is hearty, creamy, cheesy, delicious and romantic. You got to try it.
第二道：瑞士芝士火锅 (Cheese Fondue)
用料有法国面包块，菜花，芥蓝，水箩卜，胡箩卜。非常有味道。。。。。。。



Fresh bread cube is my favorite. 面包块是我的最爱。


Side dish: Roast potatoes with rosemary and blue cheese
配菜：Blue cheese rosemary 烤土豆


The potatoes were from our garden. I chose 4 different kind of potatoes to get colorful dish. For an example, purple blue, red potatoes, yukon gold, etc. Cut them into chunks, mix with 2 Tbsp of olive oil, sea salt, fresh grounded pepper and fresh rosemary.
我家自留地里的不同种土豆（红，黄，白，紫）洗净，切大块，加海盐，橄榄油，黑胡椒，和 rosemary 混合均匀。看下图。


Roast it in the pre heated oven at 425F, ~30 minutes. Sprinkle blue cheese on the top and serve. They makes absolutely great side dish.
放入烤箱425华氏度烤30分钟左右。取出，撒上奶酪。特有风味。简单，好吃，健康，无油烟。


Main course: Grill organic lamb chops
We bought a grassfed lamb from a farm this year. This is loin chop. Can't describe how flavorable it was. You just can't compare the store bought lamb chops...... With the blue cheese and rosemary potatoes, it is called "taste of heaven".
主菜： 烤有机羊排
我们今年又买了一只走地有机羊。这是 loin chop. 味道很棒。配上 blue cheese and rosemary potatoes 真是天生的一对。


Dessert: Chocolate pots de creme
甜点：Chocolate Pots de Creme（汉语不知道怎么翻译）
这是法国巧克力甜点。在餐厅里上面都放打发的鲜奶油。为了减肥，就减了。虽然没有打发的鲜奶油，还是浓浓的奶香，浓浓的巧克力味道，回味无穷。


Our dinner ended with a superb treat. It was unforgettable Anniversary at home.
这道甜点给我们的晚餐画了一个甜蜜的句号。难忘的一天就这样甜甜地结束了。。。。。。
