Rendezvous With You Know Who

-

[SOURCE]

Jon and I don't get the opportunity to date each other much these days, so when an opportunity does arise, we jump right on it. Friday was one such occasion.

Jon's parents took the boys to the Clippers game for 'Jersey Night' (no, not that kind of Jersey) and Jon and I went out for a nice dinner at Vino Vino.

The weather was so nice (not too hot with an occasional breeze) that we opted to dine al fresco on the sidewalk. Oooh la la...

We enjoyed a nice bottle of organic wine...

and a few starters...

FOR ME: Romaine Salad with avocado in a peppercorn dressing

FOR JON: Brie Bruschetta with Granny Smith apples and apricot jam

And for our main courses...

FOR ME: Pan-seared Tilapia in a lettuce wrap with mango salsa

FOR JON: Mushroom and Risotto Tower with asparagus, roasted red peppers, lentils, and chèvre


The whole meal was simply divine and we pledged that we would try to make it happen more often. However, we always manage to have a great time with each other whether we are going out or staying in, so I'm not too worried about it. I think the important thing is that we make time for each other, and thankfully, that happens waaaaaay more frequently than 'date night.'

Looking forward to our next relaxing evening together...hopefully, tonight!
