Napa Recap I

On Saturday we drove up to Napa to visit D's family. As previously mentioned, k caught a stomach bug, probably from me, and was throwing up in the car. She went through at least three outfits, and her new carseat was put to the test. It took about eight hours, but we finally made it. Of course, the highlights seem to revolve around food.

For dinner we ate at Compadres Rio Grille. D waffled about ordering the guacamole appetizer, but everyone was glad that he did. k seemed to be doing OK, but threw up at the end of our meal. Luckily, D was quick with the napkin, and it wasn't too bad.

The next day we drove to Elk Grove to meet up with Janelle. We attended service at RRNC and ate lunch at Mikuni, along with one of Janelle's friends from Dallas. Thank you to Janelle's dad, who treated! We had heard rave reviews about Mikuni from D's family and it lived up to the hype.

k met Auntie J for the first time.

It took us over two hours to return to Napa because of the traffic. We ate dinner with D's parents at Fume. I liked this place a lot. It is cozy and the food is well-executed and "fresh". Case in point: the tangerine dressing on our house salad...tasty! Too bad I wasn't that hungry considering I was still full from lunch.
