If it wasn't Thanksgiving, and my husband wasn't rubbing his belly and groaning when he said it ("two cobblers and a tart"), I would have thought he was talking about some new British comedy.
I cook, Dennis (husband) does the dishes. Being that he had to work on Friday, it was his idea to go out (no dishes, and I can't blame him, I hate doing dishes). And he promised me I could make sauerkraut for him this week. And I suppose our arteries could use a year off from my stuffing.
Denny found this place. On the Greorge Mason U campus, there is a brand new hotel, and in it is a beautiful restaurant. Floor to ceiling windows looking out into the surrounding woods. Soothing, modern decor, warm in color, minimal in design. And a fantastic looking Thanksgiving menu.

| Dennis was sooooo happy about the gorgeous glazed ham. |

| This might have been D's third plate. He missed the biscuits on his first two passes and when he found them, they were merely a new vehicle for that ham he was lovin' on. |
The spectacular Executive Chef said to us, you're not DONE, are you??
Only with our second plate, we said. And we couldn't wait for those gorgeous desserts.
Chef is also a golfer and frequenter of his local Fredricksburg, Virginia farmers' market (which I will definitely be visiting soon). He has a great smile and table-side manner.
