Off The Wall

A design wall is a really nice thing if you can reach the top of it without getting on a ladder. The top of a ladder is not a friendly place to be if you're just a little bit tipsy from the delightful alcoholic beverage you drank when your son took you out to dinner earlier in the evening.**

I had the Lobster and Mushroom Risotto, he ordered the Top Sirloin. My drink was vodka and cranberries, the dessert, Lemon Mousse, was to-die-for, and my son, bless him, paid the bill.)
