date night

Last night Steve and I went out on a date...it was great to get out of the house, away from the kids and just spend time together. We went out for a pizza at a local place that has good pizza. We got a salad for two that was absolutely delicious. It had shredded cheese, a chopped tomato thing on top with herbs and an amazing dressing. Then we got a pizza with eggplant, onion and meatballs. It was really good. It's been a long time since we've been out for pizza since I usually make ours so it was a real treat.

After dinner we decided on a whim to see if there was a movie at the local theater that we wanted to see. We got there 10 minutes before the start of the next showing of "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" which I had wanted to see. And there was room in the theater. It was a fun movie. Definitely based on the book but not exactly like the book. Still enjoyable and funny though. Alan Rickman was a scene stealer as Marvin...I can't imagine a more perfect Marvin now that I've seen the movie. Steve even liked it and I wasn't sure he would since that usually isn't his type of movie.

When we got home the house was quiet and peaceful...a good end to the evening.
