The 15th on 28th

It doesn't happen very often, but tonite CJ enjoyed some time with a babysitter while Mama and Daddy went out to celebrate their 15th anniversary. Yikes - where does the time go?

We decided to head over to 28th Avenue, where there are tons of restaurants to choose from and we thought we could walk around for a bit after eating. After we parked, we headed to the place we were thinking of, checking out several other menus on the way. When we sat down and looked at the menu, Mama got cold feet that we'd chosen the wrong place. So we went up the road for a great beer and some soft pretzels and then walked back down to one of the first places we'd seen, Tabla. We had a yummy tomato salad and then split the signature ravioli and the pasta with truffle oil. Both were really great. Nothing on the dessert menu struck us, so we walked a bit further up the road and ended up at Spints Alehouse, where we were served by the super knowledgeable owner and we shared an awesome blueberry bread pudding. Yum.

Next time we either need to stay out later and/or give more specific instructions to the sitter because CJ was still up when we got home.
