date night is always a good idea

the hub and i managed to squeeze in one more date night before the bean came home from NYC.  and this time, we made it simple and headed to an old favorite - lawry’s prime rib.


i kicked it off with my current favorite drink…an espresso martini.



we went with their “steak lovers dinner” prix fixe menu, so we started off with their famous spinning bowl salad and a bowl of lobster bisque.



and we added a shrimp cocktail to share, because it sounded good (it was).


it’s always good to watch the silver bullet roll up to your table.  the carver confirmed our order, sliced off chunks of succulent prime rib, and served it up with their classic creamed corn, mashed potatoes and gravy and yorkshire pudding.  



for dessert we chose the dark chocolate fantasy cake (a la mode, of course) and the creme brulee.



in all honestly, it’s not as difficult to get away for date nights as it used to be.  the bean is practically an adult now and doesn’t need supervision anymore - hell, most of the time they’re off on their own adventures while the hub and i hang out at home.  and we really only have another year and a half until they’re out of the house for college…yikes.

i’m going to be the worst empty nester that ever was.
