Italiano


         Mr. Lovey surprised me with a date to a really fabulous Italian ristorante this Friday. I love authentic Italian cuisine. Love. Needless to say, we stuffed ourselves and had a great time. Here are a couple pictures from the night.

Hers and His
          I think we might have been the only people in the place that weren't drinking wine. Some wines don't agree with me, so I usually play things safe and choose a mixed drink. I can only remember that there's limoncello and grey goose in my drink. There were only three ingredients, and sadly I can't remember the third. Maybe it was something pink?


          I think I would be happy just to sit in and eat an entire breadbasket. When there's delicious fruity extra virgin olive oil, it's surprising how much one can eat! We ended up ordering too much food, so I have a little left over for tomorrow =).

        Hope everyone's having a great weekend! I'm hoping to get out and about downtown for the first time in a month. Thanks for taking a peek into my dinner date. Have you eaten anything tasty lately?

Love, Dovey.
