Good Eats and Drinks

We had another lovely weekend. On Saturday evening, Jim and I tried Holy Cow, a healthy fast food place in town. They have an interesting pan-world menu. I had the falafel and really enjoyed it. It was very fresh. On Sunday morning, we woke up and headed out of town. We joined some friends up in Salem (about an hour north of Eugene) for a wine tasting at Zenith Vineyards. The property was gorgeous and all of their wine was great! The owner of Zenith recommended Cafe Uncorked for lunch. We drove for awhile on some winding country roads and came upon it. The cafe was so darn cute inside and had great food. I ordered a fish sandwich, which was good, but Jim's crab cake burger was amazing. We didn't realize how far we were until I heard the waitress say we were only 30 miles from the coast. And when we GPSed Eugene, we were two hours away! So we had a scenic ride home. While we were gone all day, Trooper stayed with his puppy friend. They were alone for almost 8 hours and (we think) they did great together! No messes or issues.
Now it's back to work as usual. Going to Monday night yoga again. Happy Monday!
