Seasons 52

What a nice day we had yesterday. So relaxing and best of all, delicious! We started the day just hanging out, drinking coffee, eating breakfast, drinking mimosas/bloody Mary's, playing Wii. From there, we both went our separate ways and did our own thing. I walked Sami and did the last cuts for my PIB quilt then took a nice hot bath and napped. Jim cleaned the garage (he actually did more than just move things from one side to the other! He actually filled two trash bags! #proudwife). Around 4:00, we headed down to Party Source to get a new keg for Jim's tap (my tap is still running). He just got the same beer he had previously: Great Lakes Conway Irish Ale. From there we went to dinner at Season's 52.

Dinner: I had never been to Seasons 52 before but I had a gift card from very generous parents so it was time. Maggie told me it was good and they had a healthier menu with smaller (normal) portions. We sat at the bar and here was the fare we enjoyed (I'm itemizing to show that it was a LOT for a LITTLE!): I had 2 glasses of wine, Jim had two gin and tonics. We shared a flat bread with braised short rib and aged cheddar. Jim had a Greek salad. Our entrees were, for me, pork tenderloin with mashed sweet potatoes and green beans with shaved Brussels sprouts. Jim had shrimp and grits. We basically shared our entrees because they were both amazing and seriously, the portions were perfect. Nothing went to waste and we walked away pleasantly full - not uncomfortably full. Oh, and I finished off my experience with a Godiva double espresso martini. All that for $104! Not bad. And since I had a $100 gift card, I only spent $30 after tip. Nice. I will definitely go there again. We were home by 7:00 and just hung out. Really I hung out because Jim was getting the keg set up. 

Today it's going to be lovely temp wise but we're under a wind advisory and this doesn't thrill me. Actually, the counties to the north of me are under advisory but I'm at the northern part of Clermont, just south of those counties so...ugh.  I know everyone thinks I'm a freak and worry wart but the high winds from a week ago took several the the neighbors trees out (behind us) and a couple even hit their houses. UGH! I'll be on pins and needles all day. 

Okay well I'm out. I'm sending Jim to the store and he needs lots of direction. Happy Sunday. Later!
