Pretty much all day I’ve been in bed or on the couch watching college bowl games, so I’m gonna continue with this sloth theme with a lazy post. Here are some photos from the festivities during the holiday. I’m heading back to Atlanta tomorrow…back to real life.

Some of the bubbles.

The beef tenderloin roast, with the balsamic glazed brussel sprouts with pancetta.

Trespass ‘01 Cab. Delicious.

Belvedere Winery 1986 Rally Cab. It was fun to check this out. It still had a bunch of fruit, but wasn’t too complex. The tannins were surprisingly present though.

Guess we missed that by a bit.

Decanting. The cork fell apart.

The warm fried goat cheese round salad from the other night. Yum.

Another Christmas dinner photo. The mac ‘n cheese (recipe viewable here) was very memorable. Do it.

We went to Zorba’s Lounge in Greenville for lunch on the 26th. This place could totally be on “Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives”. The steak sandwich is fantastic. Two of us split a small Greek salad, and split a steak sandwich with fries. Neither of us could finish our half.

Zorba’s Bar. Very old school, with a slight hint of danger.

Half a salad. Get the dressing on the side. They drench it.

As usual, my photo doesn’t do it justice. A fresh, warm onion roll, with grilled onions and thin sliced steak, topped with swiss cheese. Add in a pickle and the still-hot-and-super-crispy steak fries and a single tear fell from my eye.
