Date Night
Woohoo, we had an actual date night!!
I even dressed up and carried my new $7 clutch from Goodwill. (When I switch purses, you know I mean business!
)
Back in May we purchased tickets to see Brandi Carlile at The Slowdown. It was such a treat to have a night out planned so far in advance! I'm just glad we didn't accidentally double book ourselves.
To save a bit of money and time, we ate dinner at home. (Sauteed zucchini with tomato sauce over couscous, if you're curious.) And then we sipped spicy Moscow Mules at the show. These are probably my favorite summertime drink...the spicier the ginger beer, the better!
Brandi was amazing, as usual. She has this folk-y, old-school country twang, even though she's from Seattle. You might recognize her song The Story, as it's been featured on TV and played on the radio. (I even hear this one at the grocery store sometimes.)
One of the highlights from last night was when she rocked out Johnny Cash's Folsom Prison Blues. Ahhhh, so good!
Awesome date night! (High-five!)
