Wednesday, Jerry had to go to the Short Pump area for a meeting and he swung by Trader Joe's (one of the best stores on the planet) and grabbed dinner. We dined on pesto pizza and ate black bean soup with wild rice. He also purchased some Stilton with mango, goat cheese (which we love with white truffle oil spritzed on it), some pesto hummus and an eggplant tempanade spread. We weren't exactly slumming, you know?
I like to cook, but sometimes it is nice to just sit down and eat. Jerry commented that we hadn't eaten out since we returned from our Christmas trip to Disney. We enjoy food and we enjoy eating out and trying new things. This abstinence from the restaurant scene was probably some sort of record for us. Anyway, it got us to thinking and so I was not surprised when Jerry suggested that we go out on Thursday night.
This should certainly prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that we are not food snobs. Were did we go after a month of eating in and cooking like crazy people? Some fancy bistro? Some high dollar snooty overpriced joint? Of course not...Thursday is boneless wing night at Buffalo Wild Wings and that is where we headed.
There is news to the dining experience at BWW. I ALWAYS get Parmesan garlic and Caribbean jerk. Always. On this night I went wild and order Caribbean jerk and Asian zing. I now have a problem. I like all three sauces and I can't order all of them at once. I will have to develop a rotation schedule.
Isn't it funny that something so simple as a prepared soup or chicken wings can make you sigh and go all warm and fuzzy? Must be the company and just being able to enjoy those around the table.
Go eat something yummy!
