It's a good evening, when due to the offices of one's brother, you eat a fine repast, served by the most elegant yet butch waiter (who did hiss his "S" a bit), arguing the virtues of gingerbread versus cheesecake as a Yule Feast ending, try a new food for you (Burger Imperial) and an excellent wine to go with it (A Santa Maria area Pinot Noir...shades of Sideways!) and educate the waiter on Squirrel Stew, so he does his "cute little squirrel" imitation, and the manager on the 12 days of Cristmas and WHY someone would send pipers and drummers...

...and on the way out, the manager gives you is Jerry Garcia designed Christmas tie.

Good evening, I'd say.
