Spring has Sprung?!
Last weekend was incredibly beautiful. Spring definitely came to the Delta early. We were supposed to cruise over to San Joaquin Yacht Club with Ox Bow Yacht Club to celebrate St Patrick’s Day but Matt and I were both sick and did not want to bec…
New Oven?
We received this beast yesterday and baked our dinner (almond crusted salmon) in it last night. Unfortunately we are both sick so can’t really say how the food turned out. It was cooked all the way, which I guess is what matters. It preheated quickly i…
