Early Birthday Celebrating

My travel bud surprised me and took me on a fun movie and dinner date Friday! We saw The Vow and I cried. This is the 2nd time that I've cried at the movies in front of her. She says I'm getting all sappy now! What is wrong with me?! Ugh..

Then.....she took me to Roscoe's!! HECK YEAH! Can't turn that down. What an awesome friend! This was all her idea and I had no say in where we were going.:) The ONLY place that I will eat waffles with anything they'll give me. Not into any sticky stuff (honey, maple, caramel, chocolate, simple sugar syrup..etc) but of course you have to do it here. And the mac and cheese is BOMB! Tastes just like my homemade dish. And who would have thought of mixing orange juice and lemonade together?! I didn't. It had been a long time, Roscoe's.





My original plan was to go salsa dancing but I've been taking on a little more now, so when I think of dancing, I picture my bed and me sleeping in it! Plans changed!

The next night went out with the friends for another birthday celebration at The Stinking Rose. Gotta get my garlic fix. NO ONE LOVES GARLIC MORE THAN I DO. And this time, I made sure to get the Garlic Ice Cream.



I went in wanting the Shrimp hot plate but ended up with the Rosemary and Garlic Filet Mignon. Quite possibly the best I have ever had so far in my young life. Cooked to perfection. My tastebuds were happy. My heart was happy. My stomach was happy.



I suggested to a couple friends they should try out the 40 Clove Chicken dish. They were beyond thrilled by the result. Leah got down to the point and said, "This is the best chicken that I have ever had in my life." Enough said.



Everyone else was very pleased with their meals. All stomachs at our table were satisfied.

The Garlic Ice Cream with a Caramel Molé was bomb. Not at all overpowering. Couldn't have been better. Don't be scared off by the thought of eating garlic ice cream. Trust me on this.





So some lady told me to sit on the chair. Um, no thanks!


It was a fun weekend of movies, tears, perfect combos, and a wonderful meal.
