A random date night....
Well the drama of the dishwasher meant we headed up to Sioux Falls after work to check out what was available and what we like. I will admit I'm annoyed at prices and the dearth of selection of things I like like no buttons on the front and not shitty design button on the top and no handle that sticks out into the galley kitchen. I like the 3rd rack but Mel hates it, i also like adjustable second rack but Mel doesn't care. Also, their delivery radius is 20 miles, not the 50 miles we are used to. Sighs. we are 47 miles from the store. But we hit 2 stores, and then trundled to the local shire Archery practice.
The practice was small and we chit chatted. A doe was hanging out here and there around the field which was nice and the field is covered so the misting of rain didn't hamper us either. We stayed for quite a while before I made sure we could get dinner (Midwest downs, even when they are the largest in the state close things weirdly) at a nice upper scale place called Roma kitchen. It had bourbon and BBQ on the menu and Mel approved. I was happy to walk into a BBQ place that didn't have mesquite. I had a spiced pear mule and he had a beer followed by a top shelf old fashioned. For food he had the brisket mac/cheese and I had the panko encrusted walleye with wild rice and veggies. The food was tasty, the drinks were nice and we had a nice evening. Then it was a drive home and to bed by 11pm. I was tired.
Its raining again today a nice steady dripping with some more strong soakers. We are expecting almost 2" by Thursday night. I'm looking forward to the weekend cause starting Thursday at 5pm I don't work until July 7th and the family is coming in on Sunday. Depending on the weather will depend on if we do a tourist excursion to Desmet, Prairie Village, or Okoboji Lakes, IA. Or we could stay home and work on projects and clean house. We shall see.
We should have stopped by the grocery store last night on the way home but I can run into town for milk tonight. I will do a quick run and then back home to work on pulling out china to count for storage buys, pick out the ceiling fixture I want for the dinning room and get the pride shawl figured out from where I left off. we shall see.
I did get back into reading my book last night and that is good and am still reading #15 for the year Taming Demons for Beginners.
