Oh, our poor animals!

HAPPY MOUTH — July & August 2004

HAPPY MOUTH — July & August 2004

Because of schedule madness, the members of the supper club weren’t able to meet during July. So we decided to do the first-ever “Happy Mouth Double-Header” in August.

So, in August, we met for lunch, a mid-afternoon activity, and dinner. It was a blast! Chuck & Holly picked (July & August, respectively). Chuck selected FAT FISH BLUE at Newport on the Levee where we enjoyed traditional New Orlean’s style food. A highlight was the “Carpetbagger” dessert that Wendy got — a chocolate ‘bag’ filled with chunks of cake, fruit, white chocolate mousse, and topped with whipped cream. Yum.

Our ‘afternoon activity’ was a trip to Newport Aquarium. Our group had a blast!

For dinner, we dined at Holly’s choice, Teak Thai restaurant in Mt. Adams. We dined on great mussels, sushi, and oriental dishes.

A great time was had by all!
