We had a great time with Brandon yesterday. He came out to spend the day with us. We took him to a wine tasting at Phil's wine shop in Grayslake - Wine Knows. He sniffed a few of the ones we were tasting. Then we went to Johnny's Chop House in Antioch.
Aaron and Brandon had cowboy cut rib eye steaks and I had the Mediterranean chicken - one of my favorite dishes. We had Brandon try a raw oyster and he liked it. He's adventurous and that's always fun for us.
I made him a care package to take to NYU. It has some healthy foods such as 100 calorie popcorn, cereal bars, 100 calorie blueberry muffins, cans of soup, etc. I wanted to give him a little head start on the groceries for his dorm room. I also gave him a couple easy to cook recipes.
We watched the movie, "Almost Famous" together. He really liked it so we felt good about that.
We will miss him very much as he heads toward his new life in NYU. We'll keep in close contact though and we'll see him again in December.
Now we must plan a trip to New York in the Spring...
