It was fabulous!
Saturday I accomplished some much needed housework.
Bud had work until 4pm and upon arriving home made sure to utter the magic words:
"Babe, the house looks great, you did so much today"!
He's good.
Then he asked if I had planned dinner yet.
I hadn't and his response was perfect.
"I was thinking I could take you out".
So 45 minutes later I'm showered and ready and we are out the door.
Bud brought me to a place called Perla's.
We had walked past it a half dozen times and it's a Seafood & Oyster Bar.
I love seafood....strike that...I love crab!
Well funny story.
We arrived, are seated immediately and look at the menu.
It's pricey, but Bud had planned for that.
There is only one dish on the menu that has crab and it's a NY Strip with King Crab.
In all honesty I don't need that much food so we ask if there is any way to get just crab and the server confirmed we could get it al dente.
So I got crab with a side of DELICIOUS grilled asparagus with hollandaise sauce.
Bud got sword fish and a side of fancy hash browns (at least that's what we dubbed them).
My 8oz of King Crab. We were both a little surprised. We know that I can easily eat 24oz of crab! |
We like to take pictures of each other
from across the table...silly we know!
So we paid and walked a block down and a block over to one of our favorite Ice Cream places Amy's Ice Cream!
After strolling back to the car and enjoying our yummy dessert we headed to the IMAX where Bud works to go see I Am Number Four. In all honesty if they make sequels, I'll go see them. It took the movie an entire hour to lay out the back story and love story and finally in the last 30-40 minutes the action packed fun started. I'm all for the action!
It was a lovely evening and a perfect night for the hubby and I.
Sunday we had church and while Bud tackled his homework, during Spring Break I might add, I finished my quilt!
Yes the quilt I've been working on for Ava Renee!
Are you ready to see the finished product?
