Date night
- Sometimes we forget.
- Sometimes we take each other for granted.
- Sometimes you get into a rut when you've been married for a while.
But it's always good to remember to take your spouse out for a nice night out. No reason. Just because.
Last night we had a wonderful dinner at the Mediterranean Grill in Squirrel Hill. It's a cute little place that's hard to find but worth the effort. We had the Moussaka and a falafel. Both were excellent.
Afterwards, we saw the Chihuly exhibit at the Phipps Conservatory. Very fun, wild, innovative, cool. Chihuly and Co do some amazing things with glass. The couple of hours we were there felt like nothing.
As we were walking to the car, I said to HC, "We need to take advantage of more of the nice things that Pittsburgh has to offer." And it's true. We don't realize how lucky we are to live in a city with the diverse Arts, Cultural, and sports activities available to us. People are always complaining about "Nothing to do" but they're wrong. It really doesn't take much effort to find something to do in PGH.
Just to name a few things: World class symphony, Major league sports teams, the Carnegie museums, the Zoo, the Aviary, South Side bars & restaurants, Squirrel Hill, Shadyside, many art galleries. And on and on..

Glad you had a fun date night! I know what you mean about exploring more of Pittsburgh. Sarah and I are planninga "cultural overload" in a few weeks by heading out to Oakland and checking out all the sights. I can't wait!
Michelle: That'll be a good time. There's a high concentration of things to do in Oakland: Phipps, Carnegie museum & Scaife Gallery.
