Serendipity
So I was walking down 50th Street in Edina today, heading toward France Avenue to pick up a repaired bracelet for the wife, and I’m thinking, “Say, the Cake Eaters live near here.” Almost simultanously to the thought, the Cake Eater Husband appeared ahead of me on the sidewalk
We exchanged greetings. I mentioned that I was just thinking about him & the Mrs, & also thinking about the nearby wine bar that Cake Eating Kathy raved about (Beaujo’s) a while back. He mentioned that if I had a moment, I really should stop in just to check out the wine list, because it really was very good and changed often.
I hadn’t planned on making such a stop, but I did have a half-hour to kill, so I stopped in. And the wine list was indeed very good. 31 selections, 29 of which were available by the glass, half-glass, or bottle. Plus red or white wine flights. All at reasonable prices. I had time to sample a glass of something I’d never tried before as I checked it out.
Nice little interlude to my day, and totally unplanned.

I'm glad Beaujo's worked out for you...we do have to look into having a MOB oenophile gathering there, or wherever else there might be a decent wine list.
They also serve flights!
