Happy Birthday Jeanne!


Dear Carrilee,

We just finished your most AMAZING dinner.  Everything was delicious!  It is the pot roast I have yearned to know how to make for years.  It was fork tender, just like butter, and the sauce was so yummy on the roast and the potatoes.  We loved it, and even Kugel licked our plates of little snippets and barked for more.  You are amazing-so pleasant, so efficient and organized and professional.  I am so looking forward to our next wonderful day together.
Thank you so much.This was more than I ever could have imagine.
Love,
Jeanne, (and Stan and Alec)
