My Birthday Dinner


This weekend I celebrated my forty-somethingish birthday. The hightlight of the weekend was my visit to La Provence restaurant. This restaurant is a 4**** restaurant, according to the Sacramento Bee, and was voted best French restaurant by the California Restaurant Association. We were not disappointed. We were seated outside on the terrace and were entertained by two musicians, one on the bass cello, and the other on the guitar. They played various sorts of music in a jazz-like style. oh, and the food....it was fabulous, the best, taste bud arousing. We were sampling foods of of each others plates. The mmmm's were nonstop. The ambience was second to none. I was having such a great time eating and conversing that I forgot to take pictures of the food to share with all of you. So sorry, but do go there if you are ever in the area. It is located in West Roseville (about 15 minutes north of Sacramento). You can check out their website at http://www.laprovenceroseville.com.

I've posted pictures of me, my sister, and a few friends enjoying ourselves at La Provence. Oh, and have I told you recently how much I love my sisterlocks? They held up well last night.
