Date Night

Each week, Jesson and I switch off who is in charge of Date Night. This week it was my turn. I decided I would cook Jesson dinner and then we could go see a movie. The food turned out so well I had to take pictures. Below was our "Date Night Dinner":

These are "Scallop Sliders" (mini-burgers) courtesy of Paula Deen. They have scallops, chives, cilantro, lime juice, and bread crumbs. We also had them with a Cilantro Lime Mayo. Yum!

These are parmesan crusted steak fries. They have a really crispy parmesan outside and a really soft, french fry inside.

And of course dessert. We had Peanut Butter Parfaits with shaved chocolate on top.

Turk's Doggles

Whenever we take Turk anywhere in the car he likes to stick his head out the window. The only problem is, his little eyelids are always blown back and he gets bugs in his eyes sometimes. Enter: Doggles. Yes, this is actually a real product. They are goggles specifically made for dogs. At first, Turk wasn't too sure if he liked them, but once he stuck his head out the window and realized the air wasn't blowing in his eyes anymore he loved them! Below are two pictures from his first experience with his new Doggles.

The New Car

When we lived in Gainesville Jesson was able to take the bus to school leaving the car for me to take to work. Now that we have moved to Tampa and live in the suburbs (away from the crazy college students) we need an additional car to get each of us where we need to go. After a lot of shopping around and test driving we settled on the Honda CRV. We wanted the space of an SUV with the gas mileage of a car. We found a great deal on a used one about an hour away from us. We brought it home tonight and love it! Hondas are the best!
