...the Man and I had a date night...and we went to our favorite little Cuban restaurant...this is the little appetizer that they bring to each table...it's yummy crusty Cuban bread and like a cross between salsa and bruschetta topping...
...my entree...arroz con vegetales...and black beans...it's really garlic-y and really good...
...and then we had gotten an email for a free Cuban coffee...so we each got a little demi-tasse...it was a fun evening...I should take a photo inside the restaurant next time...we just sat and talked a long time...
...and then we got to spend a lot of time with The Airman's Baby...she really is a charmer...she's teething now...but she just talks and squeals...and mostly has a good time...
...and she's really good at entertaining herself...she played with her little crinkly lion for a long time...like at least 15-20 minutes...just cooing and laughing and squishing it around to make it make noises...it's so tactile it must be a lot of fun for her...
...this photo is actually from a little bit earlier in the week when she went to the doctor for her shots...this photo is pre-injection...the after was not so pretty...
...in the afternoon...we loaded up in the stroller...because it was really pretty outside...kind of mild and humid...unusual for January...she really loves being outside...
...but then after a few minutes...this happened...notice the pink booties...#toasty-trotters...
...one of our parishoner/gardeners brought us some more apples and sweet potatoes...we are so blessed...
...and...we celebrated a very special birthday with The Airman's Wife...who just turned 21...
...we went out for brunch...and I got my usual loaded hash browns...and whole wheat toast...
...which I usually treat like pancakes and eat with syrup...unless they offer me peanut butter and then I eat it the North Dakota way...
...when we got home...we had cards, and cakes and presents...
...more on the cake tomorrow...it's the Reine de Saba from Julia Child...and I'll definitely be making that one again...it was so delicious...
~Wishing you a lovely start to your week!
Your granddaughter is so cute and has such character in her face. All the food looks and sounds very delicious. A very happy birthday to the Air man's wife :-)
