Out of our comfort zone

Bill and I are creatures of habit.

We like to “let our hair down” on the weekends with some wine and decadent food and then we like to “tighten things up” during the week.

You most likely will never see us “go out” on a week night.  I know.  We are one wild couple :)  But it works for us.

Last night we broke our rules!

Actually we broke two rules.

We went to a friend’s house for dinner on a Sunday and we ate at 9:30 pm.

Can you say Party Animals!?

It was a lovely dinner that started with olives and bruchetta.

And wine!

And new shirts!

And finished with pasta and me asleep on the couch.

Yes I am that kind of house guest.  Stuff me full of carbs and grapes and I am out like a light :)

It was very fun though………..

Do you go out on weeknights or are you like us?

For lindsay

Last night I just had to break open a bottle of wine for Lindsay.

She celebrated Wine Wednesday in New Zealand so I thought I would join her here in the states :)

I usually drink reds but occasionally I like an oaky Chardonnay.  This was good.

I paired the wine with a wonderful rice bowl of sorts.

This one had lettuce, sprouts, raisins, brown rice, pistachios, butternut squash, a bit of sesame dressing, nutritional yeast and seaweed on top.  YUM……..

We ended up spending the evening cuddling these guys.

They sure keep Pepsi on her toes…..she is exhausted.

This morning I woke up and decided to try something festive in my coffee.

Not really a fan of it in coffee.  I think I prefer regular almond milk over this.  However I do think it would taste good in oats.

Think I may give it a try this morning.

Hope you have something planned today that is fun.

How are your Xmas plans shaping up?
