Since Reil has only a tiny window of open time between work and his class tonight, we decided to go out last night to celebrate my birthday. After sitting on our asses, pondering where we should go, we finally settled on Maggiano's. At which point, we knew we had to call John and Sonja to see if their family wanted to come along too. (We've been talking about taking the kids for quite a while now.)
Jacob's eye's grew large when we described Maggiano's whole family style schtick. "Yes, they'll keep bringing out more food if we ask for it."
A couple of hours and about 4 dozen mushroom ravioli and 2 apple crostada later, we were all contentedly stuffed and happy. Good food, great company. Yay.
I feel both that I had a terrific birthday celebration and that I don't need to eat pasta again for a long time. Except that there are leftovers in the fridge. Oy.
