A Date Night with the Hubs

So D and I went out to eat tonight... we went to our "special place." That would be Benihana Japanese Steakhouse. We love it! Its a TON of food and the prices are high but its such a great experience and lots of fun.

We actually were celebrating Valentines Day a little early. Last year we went out on Valentines Day and have learned our lesson! Its incredibly busy, the menu is "shortened and specialized" and long wait times for tables even WITH reservations. We wanted to go the week before Valentines Day but I have to have some dental work done (more on that in another post) so we wanted to get out early.

D and I are not seafood eaters... unless its at Benihana. We love their shrimp and lobster. D usually gets the Filet Mignon and Lobster and I get the Filet Mingnon and Shrimp. I have gotten that the last 3 visits but I think tonight will be the last time I get it.

You see, every evening after we leave the restaurant I get VIOLENTLY ill, stomach ill... the kind of ill you REALLY do not want me to talk about if you know what I mean. It usually hits about 30 min after we are finished eating. I have come to the conclusion that its the shrimp. That is the only "new food" that I have introduced to my body in each of these visits. So no more shrimp...... but its SO GOOD!

Overall it was a wonderful evening. This (will be) is the 2nd Valentines day we have been together (married for both, we met after Valentines day the year we were married) and it is very special and sweet to spend an evening with the one you love.

Now if the toliet would only realize that its not the one I was refering to..........
