My birthday was a while back (15 September) and Carlos and I had a day o' fun to celebrate. In the morning, we walked a couple of blocks behind our house to visit the H Street Festival and it was very fun. The festival ran for a few blocks on H Street (fancy that) and had a lot of fun things to see, hear, eat, and do. We wandered among the food booths, restaurants, and singing stages and it was fun to just see that part of the H Street neighborhood that we hadn't seen before. Lots of people were out at the festival with doggies -- it was perfect weather to just wander around and enjoy the sun and cool breeze.
We also had lunch at the festival: Carlos ate some meat on a stick and a chili dog and I had a grilled cheese sandwich from the grilled cheese food truck (too bad it was nothing special). The festival was really fun!
Later that night, we ventured over to Sonoma (where we ate most recently for restaurant week) for a special birthday dinner. We had a bubbly wine flight (sampling of three bubbly wines) and a gigantic cheese and charcuterie plate. We weren't sure if that would be enough food so we also ordered a small pizza (which we ended up taking home hardly eaten!). The cheese and charcuterie were more than enough food and this was a nice meal to end my birthday day o' fun~
