Beatrix, age 13, has a deathly fear of needles. When the vaccine was made available for her age group, I made her a promise: Get the vaccine (both shots) and I’ll take you out to dinner anywhere you’d like.
Beatrix, because she is wise, chose the most expensive and fanciest place in town. The problem of raising a young lady of taste. Tonight, we delivered on that promise.
Beatrix chose to split their signature dish with me, Steak Diane. With some whipped potatoes on the side.
That left enough room for their four layer devil’s food cake with caramel sauce for dessert.
Asked if it was worth getting two shots for, Beatrix said, “Definitely!”
Our wallet is happy we don’t live in Yountville.
