Friday Night Date Night

Friday night date night has returned!!!  And I am oh so happy!!

On Friday nights, we used to regularly have "date night" at home:  try a new recipe together, have some wine, and play a game or watch a movie all cuddly-like on the couch

I know.  We're the boring old married couple.  It's really what we do best.

This past Friday, Patterick surprised me with a shiny new Wii 2.0 for date night game time!!   

In yo' face Harpeth River!!

And then we tried lots of new recipes to make up for all of the date nights we've missed:

Olive Cheese Bread for appetizering while I beat Patrick at Wii jet skiiing...

(apologies for the horrible picture)

then Steak by Patrick with Onion-Blue Cheese Sauce and sauteed Asparagus/Tomatoes

and more amazing bread!!  The Bread.

with Five Rivers wine thanks to Wes and Sydney.  

Punkasses.

It was absolutely perfect!

Don't judge.  We love to cook together and on Friday nights, we try new recipes, regardless of how utterly unhealthy the recipe(s) might be.  It's what we do.  We walked Abbey twice that night. 

Seester and a wedding

I know I'm like 17 year behind the times on this one, but seester and I Skyped for the first time last week!! 

I love love loved it!! Why have I never had a web cam before now?!?!?!?  

I could see her and I could talk to her.  AT THE SAME TIME!!!  

It almost made me not mind that we live 10 hours apart.

Almost.

Now if only Mom would not have dial-up...

In other news, we went to San Antonio (yeehaw) last weekend, saw lots of old friends, ate and drank way too much, and, oh yeah, Holly Jo and Adam got marriaged!!  She was bea-u-ti-ful!  Congrats guys!!
