Recap of the last bit of Chapter 15...
Back in San Francisco, Bradley and Robert had a quiet evening at home and Robert made a lovely spaghetti dinner with a Bolognaise and Mushroom sauce (Gravy, as the Italians call it!) with red wine added and lots of freshly grated Parmesan Reggiano on top. It was served with a Caesar salad and toasted garlic bread.
Bradley was dually impressed as they ate in the Breakfast room and toasted the love they had for each other. They were both looking forward to getting away for a few days, with walks on the beach and romantic (and sometimes a nasty) romp in the hay, or shower if the mood struck. Now on to Chapter 16!! Please enjoy!!

Bradley and Robert finished dinner and gave Robbie and Tommy a call to see how things were going. Tommy said the a-hole, who is the major suspect, was captured and taken to jail and they do have significant evidence of the crime that will not be good for the suspect!!
Bradley asked how long they would be gone and when they expected to be home. Robbie said they were staying for a few more days and were going to go through the house to salvage anything they could and place it in storage. They were headed North to the ranch for a few days and then fly home. They were thinking about getting another house, but they wanted to give a good hard think! They were also considering a large Penthouse Apt., but time will tell!!
Bradley asked if it was okay for Robert and him to drive up the coast for a couple of days, like a mini vacation. Robbie just said, "Go and have fun and don't do anything we wouldn't do which leaves you a lot of leeway!!!" All the men laughed, and Tommy and Robbie said to have a great time. Bradley announced they would leave in the morning. They were both excited to `get out of Dodge'.
They cleaned the kitchen and went to go pack checking the weather for what clothes to bring. They knew it was fairly casual, but still wanted to make sure. This time of year, it was expected to rain, with some wind mixed with sunny days and temps running for low 40s at night to mid 50s during the day.
Upon looking online, they found a cancellation for a very private coastal house in Sea Ranch with an ocean view, a hot tub, 2 bedroom/2 bath for only $245 per night so Robert booked it for three nights. It sounded great and it was mid-week!!
Sea Ranch is in North Sonoma County. Great ocean views and over 40 miles of trails on which to hike. It is quite beautiful. There is whale watching during the migration season and those are fun to watch. (Back in the late `60s my father used to go up there and harvest abalone. MMM, they were so good, and you can only do it snorkeling and a two abalone limit per person. One time, my dear Daddy came home with 2 burlap bags, and each had 1 abalone. One came out shell side up and the other landed shell side down and the abalone attached itself to the driveway. He had to use a crowbar to pry it off the driveway!! BTW, they were delicious, from what I recall!! (I've been allergic to any and all shellfish for well over 35 years and have hospital stays to prove it!!!)
Back at the ranch, the husbands arrived and filled in the wives on what had happened to the house the all the aspects of the investigation. They had a major suspect in jail, a Mr. Jones, and he was screaming and yelling that he would sue everyone for everything!!!
The Fathers went to freshen up and change returning for cocktails in the living room. Cynthia announced dinner would be simple and informal in the breakfast room. The men nodded and said fine. Sam and Daryl were going to go into town to have dinner and see a movie. Elsa would join the families for dinner!!
Thom and Daniel joined the ladies and were called into the breakfast room for dinner. Miss Ellie had prepared a delightful repast of simple green salad - thinly sliced cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, radishes, avocado, and croutons in a creamy vinaigrette dressing. Garlic toast was to accompany the main course - chicken sautéed with a bit of garlic, fresh tarragon, white wine and cream served over pasta and topped with parmesan cheese. There were fresh green beans on the side with a hint of dill, butter, salt and pepper. It was all delicious. Dessert was simple - ice cream sundaes, tweel cookies and French roast coffee!!
After dinner they decided to play some bridge and Elsa was going to do a bit of reading. She also wanted to call Alma, as they had not spoken in a few days. Sam and Daryl had a wonderful time and had burgers and fries and a local eatery, chatted about their lives and how happy they were. They were concerned about Robbie and Tommy, but they had called them, and the boys said things were calming down in the desert and they would be up to the ranch in about a week, maybe sooner. They were relieved no one was hurt or attacked during the break-in. Hopefully, it can be solved soon, and life can return to normal.
The elders had an after-dinner night cap in the living room and talked about this and that. Daniel mentioned the boys were thinking of a 3- or 4-bedroom penthouse condo instead of a large house. There would be security and they could just lock the door and come and go at their leisure. It seemed like a better solution in the end, but that would be their choice in the end!! Both mother's agreed and thought it was a better idea than a house and still have all the luxuries without the worry.
Back in San Francisco, Bradley and Robert went up to Bradley's suite and enveloped each other in their arms, kissing passionately and slowly undressing each other. They were already sporting rock-hard cocks that were dripping. They turned each other on so much! The feelings went deeper than just sex (although it was always over the top) and since they were both very versatile, loved to rim each other on kinky side with very verbal exchanges, totally bareback with poppers once in a while.
They fell onto the bed and went into a 69 position, sucking each other until Robert raised his head and begged that they stop, or he would cum waaaaay to soon!! Robert turned around and faced his lover saying, "I need to be used like a total bottom slut pig tonight!! I need to be fucked and used. PLEASE baby, make me your pig bottom. Now thoroughly tongue fuck my man cunt, get me wet and open me, and then FUCK ME hard and deep and fill me with cum!!"
Bradley smiled and asked if he was ready? "Now get your man cunt up here and sit on my face so I can open it up with my tongue!!" Robert complied with the order, turning around and sitting on Bradley's face. He spread his lightly hairy ass cheeks to give Bradley better access. They were both in pig heaven and Bradley went to town, tongue fucking his lover with total abandon. He raised them and placed his legs over his shoulders. "You ready bitch, for my big hard dripping cock, my slut whore??"
"God, yes baby. Use me and FUCK ME hard and deep NOW!!" Bradley pushed his rock-hard cock into Robert's wet man-cunt and started to fuck him. Robert was in PIG HEAVEN and loved being used like this. He was gasping for air as he moved his head back and forth, side to side on the pillow.
"GOD YES, FUUUUCK ME !!" Bradley did just that and sort of zoned out and he powerfully fucked his lover, deep and hard. He was soon going to cum!! He screamed, "Take my cum my slut whore!!!! I'mmmmmm cummmming in your man-cunt, bitch." He shot six shots of cum deep inside his man! That triggered Robert to shoot without even touching himself, and he shot five streams all over, covering them both with cum!! They were gasping for air and Bradley leaned forward kissing his lover deeply passionately.
Finally catching his breath, Bradley said, "God lover, that was one for the books. I can't tell you how much I love you baby!!!" He smiled and saw a huge smile on Robert's face. "Lover, that was beyond words, and you are right, that was one for the books!!"
Bradley slowly shrank and slipped out of Robert's thoroughly used and very well fucked hole. They kissed again and Bradley moved to the side, where laid together, holding hands. Both men were very content, soooo in love!!
They got up to shower and were planning on leaving in the morning for Sea Ranch on the Northern California coast for a few days. Both were looking forward to getting away. After their shower and drying each other off, they crawled into bed to snuggle with each other and slipped into the land of nod!!
Robbie and Tommy had a delightful dinner, got back to the hotel and went to their suite. Tommy asked if Robbie want anything to drink. "MMMM, maybe a ½ glass of wine. I think I would like to look at Penthouse Condo's instead of a new house. They have more security, pools, spa's with workout rooms and other amenities. Plus, when we leave we can just lock the door, and everything is taken care of. We would have a lot less worry knowing this!! Some places may even have maid service, when Elsa is not with us!! What do you think?"
Tommy thought a minute, smiled and said, " I think you have a great idea, but first we need to go through the house and see if we can salvage anything and put it all in storage. We can see what else we may need and choose better after we find a place to call home down here. I really like the vibe and we will be fine after all of this is taken care of. Let's go to the house in the morning and start sorting through crap and see what there is to save."
They finished their sips of wine and wandered into the bedroom, undressed each other, crawled into bed and cuddled, kissing and telling how much they loved each other.
Both were rock hard by this time so, they turned into a 69 position and started to earnestly suck each other's cock. Robbie then went further South and started to lick Tommy's hairy balls. Tommy gasped and spread his legs to give his husband better access. Robbie raised up and turned around moving between Tommy's hairy legs and raised them up, giving himself better access to Tommy's fuck hole. He started to lick all over the region and moved in for the target! He attacked Tommy with gusto and drove Tommy crazy.
"God baby, eat me, tongue me deep, get me ready to be fucked by your huge cock. I need it so badly lover. Please fuck me deep and hard! Fill me up now, PLEASE! Robbie rose up and placed his dripping cock at the entrance to his prize. He pushed in with just saliva as lube. Tommy gasped with surprise as Robbie bottomed out! He let his cock rest there for a minute. Robbie leaned down and kissed his husband as he started to move in and out of the hole of the man he loved more than life itself!! Harder and deeper he fucked Tommy and soon both men were gasping for breath. Tommy screamed, "I'm cumming baby. Shoot deep inside of me and fill me up."
They came at the same time as Tommy gave his rock-hard cock two pulls and shot all over, while Robbie shot five shots of cum deep inside Tommy's now thoroughly fucked hole. Robbie collapsed on top of Tommy, and they kissed deeply. When Robbie's cock shrunk and slipped out, they lay next to each other and kissed. "I love you so fucking much and fall more in love every day. You, my darling man, are my life! You are buried in my soul forever!!!
Robbie had tears running down his face as he leaned in for another kiss!! They separated and Tommy got up to take care of things in the bathroom and brought back a wet towel to clean Robbie up. The crawled into bed were they came together kissed yet again, cuddling and falling asleep in each other's arms.
The next morning, everyone woke to brilliant blue skies, and were in the best of moods. Robert and Bradley were leaving to go North up the California coast. Robbie and Tommy had the task of going to the house to see if any of their possessions could be saved. Back at the ranch, the men wanted to go for a ride. Daniel wanted to look things over firsthand. The ladies were asked if they wanted to go as well, and they said yes.
They dressed for riding and sauntered down for breakfast, meeting in the Breakfast Room. Everyone was bright eyed and bushy tailed, ready for a great day. As Daryl brought in coffee and juice, he was asked if he would like to go riding with Sam and the rest. He immediately replied yes and would quickly change after breakfast. The maids and the houseman could take over while he was gone. What a treat that was going to be. Darryl smiled and thought how luck he was to have such great people to work for, a job he thoroughly enjoyed, and most importantly, that he was with Sam. He could hardly wait for them to be married at the ranch, which he now called home.
Breakfast included crisp bacon with a bit of flour and brown sugar, baked until crisp. Fried, poached or scrambled eggs and home-made hash browns, crispy and golden, and a selection of toast: sour dough, wheat or rye. Everyone decided as they sipped their coffee. The ladies asked where they were going to ride to? Daniel explained he wanted to look over the ranch and to see if any changes needed to be made. He would take notes as they rode and meet the ranch foreman when the returned.
The ranch was a huge money maker, between the horses that Sam took care of and the cattle that was butchered and sold to restaurants all over the US. There were the eggs from the large hen house that made a huge profit, as well as selling the chickens to restaurants in the greater Santa Barbara area. This all totaled to a significant sum of money to fill the coughers!! Everyone was pleased with all of this!!
Tommy and Robbie awoke in each other's arms, smiled and kissed lightly as both needed to brush teeth!! They hurried into the bath to brush teeth and then came together for a great good morning kiss. Tommy looked at his love and said, "Fuck now or wait till nap time this afternoon?? Or maybe a great blow job in the shower to tide us over? Your choice lover!" Robbie kissed his husband and said, "A great blow job sounds wonderful, and a NAP later would be fabulous!"
Then he sank to his knees and took Tommy's 10" hardening cock into his mouth and started to tease the head with his lips, (which by this time was already starting to drip pre-cum)! It tasted delish, as always!!
Going up and down on the rock-hard cock was glorious and he loved how it felt going in and out of his mouth. Savoring the taste, he swallowed it to the root and started to HUMMMMM. This was driving Tommy over the edge when he started to pump his cock out of Robbie's mouth and shouted he was going to shoot! He did, almost drowning Robbie's mouth with cum. Robbie swallowed it all with great relish!!
Tommy was wobbly after the fabulous blowjob from his gorgeous husband. Now it was his turn to return the favor. He caught his breath and sunk to his knees in front of the man he loved more than words could express! He started to lick the dripping cockhead and savor the taste, and he took Robbie's 9" cock down his throat. He also started to hum and went up and down causing Robbie to moan. Tommy raised his mouth off Robbie's cock, smiled and said that he loved Robbie so fucking much. He asked Robbie to spread his legs while Tommy licked his middle index finger and reach under Robbie, between his legs, and used that finger to play with Robbie's fuck hole. He inserted the index finger deep inside and took Robbie's cock deep down his throat, seriously sucking it while finger-fucking his lover, his `forever' husband.
Robbie was moaning and struggling and soon yelled, "OH GOD lover, that feels so fucking good!!" With a gasp, he shouted, "I'M CUMMMMMING!!" and he shot five shots of cum down Tommy's throat. Still gasping for air, Tommy slowly stood and hugged Robbie, sharing the cum that lingered in his mouth. Robbie sank to his knees and Tommy joined him on the floor. They kissed again and had huge smiles on their faces!!
Standing slowly, Tommy started the shower, they stepped in and washed each other as was their custom. Once clean and shampooed, they stepped out and dried each other. The Tommy headed for the phone to order coffee and breakfast. After he ordered the coffee, Robbie said to Tommy, "Darling, I think we need a good hard work out. UMMMM, I mean like in the gym!! I think we both need it to release tension and we haven't worked out in a while with everything going on... I am feeling fat!!!"
Tommy started to laugh at his husband and replied, "Darling, the only fat thing on you is your cock when it gets hard and ready to fuck my tight hungry hole or my mouth. Lover you do it sooo well!!" Both men started to laugh, and they dressed in work out gear and went down to the Gym in the hotel basement. They had just finished working out when Robbie's cell rang. It was from Karl and Walt, (Friends they met on their honeymoon cruise. Karl and Walt were now a couple). Robbie put the phone on speaker so Tommy could hear the call. "Hey guys, what's up?? I know we haven't talked in ages!!" Karl replied, "We called the house to ask you both to dinner and Bradley told us about what happened in the desert! We're calling to ask if you need help with anything. We are so glad you both were not hurt. Where are you now? I hope we didn't interrupt anything of great importance??"
Laughing, Robbie replied, "We just finished working out in the gym at the hotel where we are staying and later we are going over to the house to see what we can save!! Where are what are guys up to?"
"I just had a thought! We can fly down right away and help you both with your clean-up task, packing or whatever you need!!"
Tommy said, "We're at Marriot Suites in Palm Desert and we have two bedrooms. come down and we will pick you up at the airport. Let us know when you're arriving, or better yet, the plane is up North, I will call the guys and they can fly you down here this afternoon! Pack and get to Butler Aviation and the guys will be waiting for you. We can't thank you enough! Besides, we are due for a good long catch up!! So, we will see you later. Bring a sport coat and we can go to Le Belle tonight and start with the house tomorrow, DEAL??"
The guys went up to their suite to shower and change and were excited about seeing their friends, Karl and Walt!! It had been a while, since everyone was just busy with work and such. They dressed in jeans and sweaters, Toms and everyday jewelry. They planned to head over to the house tomorrow with their friends to start going through stuff to see if some things salvageable. They prayed the asshole had not destroyed too many of their gorgeous things. Coffee arrived, and it was delicious. They discussed getting some boxes. We could call a storage place, but decided to wait until they surveyed the damage first.
Robbie called the ranch and asked how everything was. Daniel said they were all going riding and had just finished breakfast. Robbie explained what they were up to regarding the house, storage and salvage. Daniel advised, "Just don't rush and things will be fine - it is what it is!!" Tommy talked to his Dad and asked how things in the office were going? If he was needed in town for anything urgent? Thom said things were fine and to take the rest of the week off. We are all going home to tackle business in a few days!!
Robbie then mentioned that they were flying their friends Karl and Walt down as they had offered to help, and they were going to come that afternoon. Daniel thought that was a great idea since everyone liked Karl and Walt and thought they were great friends. Robbie also asked Daniel about the figures and things at the restaurants. Daniel said things were great, numbers were significantly up, and all were pleased with that news!!
Tommy and Robbie were now going to wait for their friends to arrive and Robbie had called Richard and Jared, their pilots, to schedule flying their friends down that afternoon. They were told to bring sport coats as they would be dining at Le Belle that evening as well and Robbie had booked them a room at the hotel for the night or forever long they wanted to stay. They had become close friends as well as excellent pilots. The men excepted immediately and were excited about getting away for a few days. They had also heard of the trouble with the house, the destruction and vandalism, and were quite upset for their friends/employers.
Jared called and told Robbie they were flying down around 2:00 and would be landing in a little over an hour. They would call as they approached the airport. One of the boys would come and pick them up and take them to the hotel to rest a bit before they went out to dinner. Robbie called and made a reservation for 7:30 for six. It would be a fun evening and getting together with friends was always special!
Tommy and Robbie went to the pool and brought their cribbage board. They planned to have a glass of iced tea and play a few games while lounging in the sun. They loved being together and enjoyed cribbage!! It had been a fine morning, starting with the great BJs in the shower, a nice breakfast, and now their good friends were coming. It would be good to see Walt and Karl and catch up with their lives. The men knew they were now living together in Hillsborough at Karl's home and kept Walt's large condo in town as their "TOWNHOUSE"! It all worked out and they were so in love. They knew they were so lucky to meet as they did and to fall in love on the Atlantis Cruise Line. They also had kept in touch with Capt. Ben and Carlton!!
The call came: they would be landing in about 20 minutes, so Robbie and Tommy gathered their car and drove to the airport. It was a gorgeous day and they arrived just as the plane landed. Karl and Walt deplaned, warm hugs were exchanged, and once their luggage was in the boot, they headed off to the hotel. The valet parked and was told they would need the car later for dinner. Jared and Richard took a cab to the hotel where Robbie had arranged a room for them on the same floor.
The visitors were impressed with the layout of the hotel as the pilots were shown to their room. Robbie and Tommy took Walt and Karl to their suite. They were shown to the guest bedroom where they unpacked. Then they joined their friends in the living room for a drink and promised to discuss the vandalism at the house later. While drinks were served, Jared and Richard joined them to hear. All were totally gob-smacked but were glad that the asshole had been caught and was in jail awaiting arraignment!!
Robbie told the guys that dinner was a bit dressy tonight, sport coats were required with nice slacks, as they were going to La Belle for the evening. No ties were needed. Richard and Jared had only been there one time and Walt and Karl had never been to La Belle, although they had heard about it, (careers and busy schedules). All were looking forward to the evening.
They chatted a bit and then went to rest before showering and dressing for the evening. Robbie and Tommy had gone into the bedroom, stripped down, cuddled in bed and drifted off for a short nap with a promise that any urges would be taken care of later that night. Both boys smiled at that sexy thought!!!
They slept for about an hour, got up to pee, shower, and dress for the evening. Walt and Karl were just coming out of their room when Robbie and Tommy appeared. They smiled and hugged as they walked into the living room. The doorbell rang! Their butler answered the door and welcomed Jared and Richard. Jules, the Butler, had arranged simple Hors`d Oeuvres and opened a bottle of Crystal Champagne. Chrystal flutes were at the ready. The Hors' d Oeuvres were simple, mixed toasted nuts, assortment of olives and some Brie with crackers.
Hugs were exchanged and Jules poured everyone a glass of the fabulous wine. Walt was the first to speak, "Now if you please, tell us what the fuck happened to the house and what is going on??" Everyone laughed and Tommy made a toast to good friends and to great outcomes. Robbie started, "Well, when we got down here and drove to the house, I just felt something funny and when we walked up to the front door, it was ajar! Tommy called the police right away, thinking someone was in the house and we wanted to be careful. They arrived in minutes and stated we were right to call and NOT enter the house as we could have been hurt, shot or worse. Robbie became ashen, and Tommy put his arm around him and kissed his temple to soothe his husband.
After a couple of deep breaths, Robbie composed himself and went on. "The police searched the house, and it was clear. No one was there. We entered and were dismayed at what had been done to our gorgeous home!!"
"It was in shambles. Furniture tossed about; dishes and crystal smashed; bad stains on the carpet; the dining room table had been scratched badly; the upholstery had been ripped; a couple of art works had been smashed; two paintings had been ripped beyond repair; and that was just the front of the house!!" at that point Robbie was shaking and had to sit down.
Tommy continued, "We walked further in the house. The kitchen was a total mess. Things were literally thrown everywhere; cabinet doors ripped off; dishes smashed as well as the glassware; counters marred; the pantry had been destroyed; anything that was in the fridge had been thrown about and it stunk to high heaven! We ventured into the bedrooms and found them ripped and destroyed; the beds, linens, pillows had been ripped open and stained; In our room written on the walls were the words, "DIE FAGGOTS DIE!!!" in red paint. Clothes had been ripped and torn and had motor oil and bleach thrown on them. They tried to get into the safe, but were unsuccessful, thank God!! In our bathroom, mirrors were smashed; tile and marble broken; and the sinks smashed! We were in total shock and just sank down and cried!!"
The police cleared space for us to sit in the destroyed living room but only after forensics had taken prints and pictures of the house. They started to ask questions about, well, if we knew anyone would want to do this? Officer Roberts asked if we knew a Mr. Jones. We thought and a light bulb went off!! "Yes!!! That was the asshole who attacked Robbie at the supermarket right after we moved here. We sued him and won, his wife divorced him and took almost all of his money. We heard he fought that and lost, saying he would get even with us for ruining his life!!!"
So, the long and short of it, it was that asshat that did this to us!
"He is now in jail, awaiting trial on all kinds of counts and is going away for a long time. We are going over to the house tomorrow, if you guys are willing to help, we will see what can be salvaged and what we just throw away. we can pack stuff to save and put it in storage but the rest we will just junk!!"
The men were shocked and said they would help in anyway could. Robbie and Tommy thanked and hugged their friends, but it was time to leave for dinner. Jules cleaned up and the men left to go to La Belle. Robbie had asked if the hotel had a limo to transport a larger group to the restaurant. They had a Cadillac Limo that they could use. At the front door, the Limo was waiting, and they were soon off to the restaurant!!
They arrived at La Belle and when they entered, they were greeted warmly. Jacque, the new front manager, greeted them warmly and they were taken to their table. Walt and Karl were dually impressed with the restaurant and so were Richard and Jared, even though they had been once before. The table had a fabulous view of the whole restaurant and as they walked to the table, Robbie and Tommy were warmly greeted by people they knew as well as staff.
Seated, they were giving menus and asked if cocktails were to be served? Robbie asked for a bottle of Crystal. It soon appeared in a silver wine cooler on ice with six gorgeous crystal flutes which were placed on the table. Sean Michel, the Sommelier, brought the wine, expertly opened it and poured a small amount from the punt in Robbie's glass for tasting. It was accepted and glasses were poured around the table. This time Walt offered a toast to their friends and how lucky neither were hurt in the break-in! Glasses touched with the slight ping of crystal touching crystal. It brought smiles and generous thank-yous to Robbie and Tommy!!
After perusing the menus, each had pretty much decided what to have for dinner. Jared and Walt, decided to start with the house-made Pate`, while Robbie and Richard want to have the escargot, with butter, garlic, with a touch of Cognac and parsley. Tommy wanted Conciel St. Jacque (Baby scallops in a cream and wine sauce with mushrooms, normally served in scallop shells and baked). Karl wanted to have the Oysters Rockefeller. These orders were place by their server, Rodger, who had served there with Robbie from the beginning of the new ownership.
The men had a lively discussion about their lives - just catching up. Walt said his business was doing very well and he was thinking of opening another office. Richard and Jared complained that their bosses were having them fly here and there, with no time for any relaxation and certainly no time to make love! Such demanding people!! And all started to laugh. They ended by saying they had the best bosses you could ever want, and they would not want to work anywhere else. Everyone laughed and toasted Tommy and Robbie. Karl said his business was great and they were redoing part of the house in Hillsborough. They were getting married in about two months and then flying off to Spain and join the Atlantis Cruise Ship, still run by Capt. Ben and Carlton, (his husband and Chief Purser on the gay cruise line where they had met for their honeymoon) and then cruise the Mediterranean!!
They were going from Barcelona, down along the Italian Riviera, Rome, up to Florence and Portofino, then on to Monte Carlo, for a tour the Palace grounds and hopefully see the Grand Prix, the famous car race, and then to Caan, hopefully to see some of the famous film festival. Then to Gibraltar and Lisbon, and finally docking in South Hampton. They would stay in London for a couple of days at the Ritz Hotel and do some shopping on Saville Row and of course shop at Harrods. (I have done that cruise and it was magnificent. We stayed in Barcelona for three days before the cruise and stayed in a hotel designed by Gaudi, the famous architect who also designed the Sagrada Familia Church. They have been building it for well over 100 yrs. We also ate some of the best food ever, including Roast Baby Kid (Baby Goat) leg, with one of the best Aioli sauces I have ever eaten!! The high Tea at the Ritz in London is not to be believed as well as Claridge's, the famous hotel.)
We plan on getting married in Carmel on the beach - if weather permits and you all are invited! We will confirm dates a bit later, and the reception will be at Highlands Inn Hotel with a full sit-down dinner.
Robbie was first to speak and said, after looking at his husband, we would love to come and we can lend you the plane to get to Barcelona, if you'd like. Needless to say, both men were totally overwhelmed by the generous offer and said they would let them know dates and the details.
They first course plates were cleared, and they were presented with ice sculptured dishes with a champagne and Mandarin Orange Sorbet. More champagne was poured, and their discussions continued with what to do about the house and what their plans were?
Tommy said they would make a decision tomorrow after they had seen for them-selves exactly how much damage was done. Robbie said with total certainty that he never wanted live in the house ever again. It had been tainted by evil and the loveliness and calm of the house had been destroyed!! But the others urged him to wait until they reached the house and went inside.
The main courses were examined, and each gentleman decided what they felt like for dinner. There was a fabulous Salmon fillet dish, blacked and served with fresh grilled mixed vegetables and a rice pilaf. There were several beef dishes as well. Le Boef au Poirve (my favorite beef dish from France), tender fillet in a cognac, cream and peppercorn sauce, with Haricot Vert, French green beans with scallions and dill, and Layonassie Potatoes. Also, Tournedos Rossini, tender beef tournedos (fillets cut in half and pounded a bit) with a truffle, Madeira and Demi-Glace sauce, cooked with goose liver and served on small rounds of white bread, fried in butter. (It is delicious and a must try!!) There was Le Pullet Florentine which is a chicken breast that has been poached and placed in a Gratin dish on top of creamed spinach, with nutmeg and butter. The chicken is topped with a Mornay sauce and grated Parmesan Cheese and baked under the broiler!! Sweetbreads vol au vent (Another total favorite of mine. Sweetbreads done in a champagne cream sauce with shallots and brandy, served in a puff pastry shell with salt, pepper and minced parsley. YUMMMM!! Next was Lobster Thermador. Lobster meat with fish stock, shallots, white wine, dry powdered mustard in a Mornay sauce and cream, served in casserole dishes and lightly browned under the broiler. There was also chicken in a tarragon cream sauce and served with veggies and rice pilaf. And last, Sole Picatta, lightly grilled in a lemon, white wine and caper sauce, and garnished with minced chives.
It was varied menu and everyone ooohed and awed over the choices. It was tough to decide. Richard ordered the Lobster, while Jared ordered the Fillet of Sole; Both Robbie and Walt asked for the Steak au Poirve and Tommy went for the Tournedos Rossini. Walt asked for the Salmon and Karl chose the Sweetbreads. Wine was ordered and included a lovely Chardonnay from Napa Valley, a Sonoma Cutrer, from France a bottle of Louis Jardot, Pouilly Fuisse, a lovely white burgundy that is light and goes wonderfully with red meats.
The sorbet was delightful and refreshed the pallet before the main courses. The additional wines were brought long with white and red wine glasses. The champagne had been finished and all agreed it was delightful.
Dinner was soon served with a flourish and looked and smelled wonderful. The service was impeccable, and everything looked fabulous. The wine was poured expertly, and everyone dug in, and couples shared bites. Karl and Walt exclaimed that this was another one of their favorite new restaurants, until Robbie reminded them he owns one in San Francisco near Union Square. Both men looked shocked and said, "Well DUHHHHH!" since they had been there several times by themselves or taken friends or family there. Everyone laughed. Dinner was soon finished, and coffee service was brought along with a huge, wonderful, Chocolate Souffle with Crème Anglaise, scented with Cream de menthe!!
Dinner was a huge success, and everyone had a grand time. Robbie signed the check, and Tommy left a sizable tip, although everyone objected to that, but it was accepted that they were Robbie and Tommy's guests for the night. They were met by the Limo that Robbie summoned to take them back to the hotel. They had a busy day, and all needed their rest for the morning ordeal, so they adjourned for the evening.
