Style Me Pretty

Date Night



Dress: Francesca's
Shoes: Jessica Simpson
Belt: Grandmothers (I wish I would have gotten a picture of the back of the belt...it's pretty cool)

Please excuse the grainy pictures and the dead dog toy in the background behind my legs.  Also, the front of my dress has ruffles.  You just can't really see them.  :o(

Friday night was date night for the hubs and I.  We decided to have a "locals weekend" for just the two of us.  We finally went and ate at the Spanish wine bar and restaurant across the street (literally right across the street) from us.  O-M-Geee!!!  I am so upset with ourselves for not trying out this place sooner.  It was such AMAZING food and wine!  And did I mention the entertainment?  Yes, there was also live entertainment!  :o)  As we sipped on probably one of the best Spanish reds I have ever tasted, as well as dined on the most amazing tapas of my life, we also enjoyed some live music from a great Spanish band.  It was the most romantic date night we have had in quite some time.  We were the couple all snuggled up next to each other and gazing into one anothers eyes in the restaurant.  And when we were not admiring our better halves, we were stuffing ourselves with our amazing spread of tapas.  Want to know what it included?  I'll tell ya...

1. Grilled Lamb Chops with rioja demi-glace 
2. Roasted Eggplant, squash, and tomato napoleon with drunken goat cheese
3. Mussels in a white wine, saffron, garlic sauce with grilled bread for dipping
4. Special: Grilled mahi-mahi with mango, tomato and feta cheese
5. Special: Grilled filet topped with a blue cheese sauce (WOWzers!)

Yes...we ate all of that...

It's really small servings, so it's not as bad as it looks.  I swear...

Awesome date night is all I have to say!  :o)
