Date Night & Dream Vacation

by Tiff

Happy Weekend, Y’all!  I created a guest post for Corey at Learning Patience today.  She’s off on her dream vacation, so she asked me to write about my dream vacation.  If you’re interested (or not), you should check it out on her blog.

I do have a little info for you here about my date night last night.  See, Kev and I don’t do many official date nights.

  1. I think planned date nights can sometimes end up awkward and rigid.
  2. We usually prefer to save our $$$ when it’s just the 2 of us and party with friends when we go out on the town.

But this was really fun!  First off… I started the day with my cool boots!  I also wore them to dinner.

Then we hit up one of our favorite restaurants after work.  (I had a Groupon!)

We both had a glass of a fabulous wine that we can only find at this restaurant (and wine.com), and we split the goat-cheese stuffed red peppers.  Wow.  Delicious!

For dinner, I ordered the sausage gnocchi.  The homemade gnocchi was puffy and definitely better than the packaged stuff.  Kevin had the veal piccata.

As you can see – we hated it.  Winking smile

When we got home, we had the first fire of the season and watched Artois the Goat on Hulu.  I recommend this movie.  It’s a very dry humor (and kind of stupid), but it was really funny.  Caution: the movie made me want to buy a goat (or three)!

Kitties like fire.  They take after their momma.  Smile
