Saturday Night
It's almost midnight and my brain is tired so this entry is going to be short. I met up with my friend Karolina tonight. We had not seen each other for a few months so it was nice to catch up. We're both moms so going out on a Sat night sans enfants is not something we do very often. After a lot of brainstorming about what to do with our free evening we decided to go out for dinner + movie. It was Karolina's idea to go to an Indian restaurant and I was more than happy to comply because I had been craving Indian food for a while. The food was really excellent. We orderd samosas as an appetizer followed by a tandoori mix platter (beef, lamb, chicken, fish) with rice. To top off the menu I ordered some dessert: delicious housemade Indian ice cream...mmm! It tasted a lot like caramel but it wasn't sticky or gooey, nor too sweet. The theater we went to plays movies in original language, but there were not too many options for this evening so we decided on "American Hustle" (the other option was "Dallas Buyers Club"). I must say I liked the cast better than the story. My legs became restless halfway through the movie which made it a bit uncomfortable but still it felt great to be sitting in a movie theater and taking my mind off the usual things. Thank you Hunny for taking care of Nina this evening and giving me a nice evening off! xo
