Best Meal Ever!

Hello Friends!

I hope you are all having a fabulous Valentine's Day. I sure did.

Even though I really don't enjoy this holiday as much as others, I decided to embrace my singleness and enjoy the evening with some other likewise single ladies. We went to Red Lobster for dinner, but of course, since it is one of the few nice restaurants in our lovely town, we had to wait about an hour and a half to be seated. So we decided to enjoy our time shopping at a local establishment. After about an hour of shopping we returned to the restaurant. We still had a bit of time left to wait, so I picked up a menu in order to make the waiting time at the table a bit faster. The moment I saw it, I knew what I wanted. I knew that I wanted the coconut shrimp with the pina colada sauce and a baked potato. And that's what I got. It was heavenly! It was then that I fell in love. As I was eating my delectable meal, the waitress came by and asked if I wanted more sauce. Of course I would have taken it, but I couldn't eat another bite, so I asked for a to go box and some sauce to go as well. She brought me back TWO containers of it! As I was paying for my meal, the girls had encouraged me to ask how they make the sauce, and I, being a persuadable girl, asked. She told me that they don't actually make their own sauce, they get it sent to them, which kind of burst my bubble, but worry not, I will never forget the meal I had tonight. So now, as I sit in my room, completely satisfied, I look back fondly on this evening and my perfect meal and remember that I've got the leftovers in my fridge. What a day.

Short Story

At dinner last night I reached for my chapstick (which was in my pocket) to reapply. I wasn't paying attention as I was putting it on, and normally I have to push fairly firmly, so I was applying the usual amount of pressure, but unfortunately the chapstick had melted slightly. Soft chapstick applied with firm pressure equals a mess! It was all over the side of my mouth and face. I tried wiping it off with my napkin, but that just made it worse. It got all over! Of course it probably didn't help too much that my friend and I were cracking up the whole time. It was hilarious.
