Monday night my sister and I went out to dinner and while we were on the way home she said I had plenty of fodder for the blog. I figured it was about time I used all of that material up.
We went to a local restaurant that does a Cheap Date Night and we scored big. For $35 we split a bottle of wine, a house salad, a bowl of penne pasta with puttanesca sauce and bread pudding for dessert. De-darn-licious. My sister is a pretty good cheap date. As far as good material, all I’ll say is that she got a little loopy on the wine. Good times.
While we were headed to the restaurant, I asked if we could take The Niece to the State Fair this weekend. We’re babysitting and thought it would be fun to introduce The Niece to the thrills and chills of elephant ears, funnel cakes, cotton candy, corn dogs, greasy pizza slices and sno-cones. Oh, and all the animals too. We have permission to go and I have to admit we’re a little excited. I’m sure by the time Saturday evening rolls around the three of us will be cashed out on the couch before the sun goes down.
Don’t forget the candy apples. They’re my favorite!!!!
