I had stayed home while Robert went to the beach Saturday. He came home Sunday claiming traffic went smoothly, EXCEPT for a half hour delay due to a wreck 10 miles east of Lincoln City. When he returned we went to one of our favorite restaurants in our neighborhood. Fratelli. We both ordered the fennel salad: fennel shaved into long curls (how did they do that?) piled on to butter lettuce with a fabulous creamy olive (ground black olives) dressing. We both ordered a pasta. I had a fettuccine with beans, Robert had the day's special ravioli.
