Thank you sweetie pie..very thoughtful of you 😘❤ Instead of my usual choice of either fillet or salmon, I decided on the roasted duck. Yumm ! Hubby had his favourite fillet on the bone, cooked to perfection. For dessert, hubby had creme brulee and I had vanilla panacota #steakhouse #weddinganniversary #48years #48yearsanniversaryTwo Christmases on our family calendars .. 2018 and 2019 #christmas #family #familychristmasphoto #familytimeArchives
