Yummm

We went out to dinner last night to celebrate and had a lovely time at a little place in Ellicott City, called Cacao Lane (Please ignore the description here, it doesn't do it justice. I just put the link in for the picture). The folks in the restaurant pronouced it "Cocoa" Lane, but that was the only flaw. The service was great, the food was terrific and the atmosphere was perfect for a romantic little dinner. We were put at the "seeder" table. At least we think that's what the guy said. It certainly wasn't "cedar." The table was right in the window so Andy thinks he meant seeder like "seeding the crowd" kind of a thing.

Well, whatever the guy meant it was a nice table. We got to look out onto Main Street of historic Ellicott City and watch the people go by. The group of kids sitting on a bench smoking. Two women desparately trying to carry an antique armoir to a car somewhere just out of sight. The dresser had been painted white, causing us to wonder who would have painted such a beautiful old piece?

Then we got a show. No, not in house. The police showed up across the street, investigating who knows what. The car lights flashing on and off gave us a lovely disco effect, which the waitress assured us she had them do just to celebrate our anniversary. But who noticed when the food was so good, and we had each other to look at.

If you're ever in the Ellicott City area I definitely recommend it as a nice restaurant to try. If you're lucky you might get the disco lights too!
