Date Night

Last night Kenn and I had an awesome date night. I planned the whole night as a fun surprise for my husband. The plan was for a romantic dinner and a show.

I bought tickets to see the Buddy Valastro, aka Cake Boss, at the local performing arts center many months ago. We both like watching the food shows so I thought this sounded like a good idea.

So this week I had to think of somewhere to go for dinner. Hmmmm... where can we go that is not that same old thing? I finally came up with an idea. Kenn always wanted to try this local Thai restaurant, so I made reservations.

Kenn had no idea where we we going but he likes surprise at much as I do, so it was really cool. We dropped my daughter off and made our way to dinner. Up until we pulled into the parking lot he could not guess the surprise. He was really excited when he saw it was Thai Cuisine. I had the shrimp and crab with fresh vegetable fried rice and Kenn had lamb curry. The atmosphere, food and customer service was great.

After dinner it was time for the show. We drove downtown and parked. As we walked down the street, Kenn saw the marquee and saw that we were going to see Buddy, the Cake Boss. I was probably a little more excited but he thought that this was a good idea.

As soon as we walked into the center you could smell the aroma of a delicious bakery. When we were seated, we were in the second row. Buddy put on an awesome show. It was very much family oriented, he had great stories, involved the audience, and of course, showed his awesome cake decorating talent. We talked about the show all the way home.

So often we get caught up in our busy lives and we don't get time to enjoy each others company. Last night was a real nice time to reconnect and relax.

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend.
